Adiabatic Flame Temperature Interactive Simulation

[foxhound]

Enjoy your videos. Usually, when one speaks of adiabatic, one thinks of energy transfer by work. I guess from a every day standpoint, one thinks of combustion as the addition of heat, but if that’s true, it’s not adiabatic. So, is this process called adiabatic because no external heat is added ( no transfer of energy by a temperature difference) but the increase in energy comes from combustion? which technically is not work., but at the same time, the energy transfer is not do to a temp difference, but internal combustion.
