Abstract

There are three ways of cooling a gas: (1) by exploiting the latent heat of evaporation of another gas of lower boiling point; (2) by causing it to do external work; and (3) by making use of the negative Joule — Thomson effect, arising from repulsive intermolecular forces which result in the performance of what is called internal work on expansion.
