unusual facts about Clausius-Clapeyron relation



Atmospheric thermodynamics

In the early 19th century thermodynamicists such as Sadi Carnot, Rudolf Clausius, and Émile Clapeyron developed mathematical models on the dynamics of bodies fluids and vapors related to the combustion and pressure cycles of atmospheric steam engines; one example is the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.

Post-perovskite

Post-perovskite phase is stable above 120 GPa at 2500 K, and exhibits a positive Clapeyron slope such that the transformation pressure increases with temperature.

Rudolf Clausius

Clausius was born in Köslin (now Koszalin in Poland) in the Province of Pomerania in Prussia.
