Isochoric Process

In isochoric thermodynamic process, the volume of the system does not change. An example of such a process is gas inside a closed container. The work done by such a system is zero. However, if the system is heated, there will be changes in the internal energy of the system.

According to the first law of thermodynamics, 

ΔQ = ΔU + W

Where Q = heat transferred 

and ΔU = change in internal energy.

Therefore, ΔQ = ΔU
