Adiabatic
In thermodynamics, pertaining to the relationship of pressure and volume when a gas or fluid is compressed or expanded without either giving or receiving heat. In an adiabatic process, compression causes a rise in temperature, and expansion a drop in temperature (U.S. Naval Oceanographic Office, 1966
