Examples of 'isolated system' in a sentence

Meaning of "isolated system"

This phrase is often used in the context of physics or thermodynamics. It refers to a physical system that does not exchange matter or energy with its surroundings. In such a system, the total amount of energy remains constant, and there is no external influence or interaction
Show more definitions
  • A system that does not interact with its surroundings. Depending on context this may mean that its total energy and/or momentum stay constant. In thermodynamics, isolated is usually used to indicate that the system's energy does not change. In mechanics it is used to indicate that the system's momentum does not change.
