The TV diagram of Fig. 133 indicates that nofurther rise of temperature would accompany increased compression; the actualpath at y has already become practically isothermal. 308. Comparison of Cycles. Figure 134 shows all of the cycles thathave been discussed, on a single pair of diagrams. The lettering cor-responds v^rith that in Figs. 122-128, 130. The cycles are,.
