Abstract
A generalized definition of the adiabatic exponent, which holds for ideal and real gases, is investigated. The generalized definition makes it possible to apply a number of formulas of engineering thermodynamics and gas dynamics to a real gas, using a parameter called the “ideal” temperature.
