is the adiabatic version of the [[stiffened equation of state]].
It has the form

:<math>p = B \left[ \left( \frac{\rho}{\rho_0} \right)^\gamma  -1 \right]</math>

In it, <math>\rho_0</math> is a reference density around which the density varies,
<math>\gamma</math> is the [[Heat capacity#Adiabatic index | adiabatic index]],  and <math>B</math> is a pressure parameter.

Usually, the equation is used to model a nearly incompressible system. In this case,
the exponent is often set to a value of 7, and <math>B</math> is large, in the following
sense. The fluctuations of the density are related to the speed of sound as

:<math>\frac{\delta \rho}{\rho} = \frac{v^2}{c^2} ,</math>

where <math>v</math> is the largest velocity, and <math>c</math> is the speed of
sound (the ratio <math>v/c</math> is [[Mach's number]]). The [[speed of sound]] can
be seen to be

:<math>c^2 = \frac{\gamma B}{\rho_0}. </math>

Therefore, if <math>B=100 \rho_0 v^2 / \gamma</math>, the relative density fluctuations
will be about 0.01.

If the fluctuations in the density are indeed small, the
[[Equations of state | equation of state]] may be approximated by the simpler:

:<math>p = B \gamma \left[
\frac{\rho-\rho_0}{\rho_0}
 \right]</math>


It is quite common that the name "[[Tait equation of state]]" is improperly used for this EOS. This perhaps stems for the classic text by Cole calling this equation a "modified Tait equation" (p. 39).

-==Derivation==
-Let us write the stiffened EOS as
-:<math>p+ p^* = (\gamma -1) e \rho = (\gamma -1) E / V ,</math>
-where ''E'' is the internal energy. In an adiabatic process, the work is the only responsible of a change in internal energy. Hence the
-first law reads
-:<math>  dW= -p dV  = dE .</math>
-Taking differences on the EOS,
-:<math>   dE = \frac{1}{\gamma-1} [(p+p^*) dV + V dp ] , </math>
-so that the first law can be simplified to
-:<math>   - (\gamma p + p^*)  dV  = V dp.</math>
-This equation can be solved in the standard way, with the result
-:<math>   ( p + p^* / \gamma)  V^\gamma   = C ,</math>
-where ''C'' is a constant of integration. This derivation closely follows the standard derivation of the adiabatic law
-of an ideal gas, and it reduces to it if <math>   p^*  =0 </math>.
-If the values of the thermodynamic variables are known at some reference state, we may write
-:<math>   ( p + p^* / \gamma)  V^\gamma   =   ( p_0 + p^* / \gamma)  V_0^\gamma , </math>
-which can be written as
-:<math>   p      =  p_0 +  ( p_0 + p^* / \gamma) ( (V_0/V)^\gamma - 1 )  . </math>
-Going back to densities, instead of volumes,
-:<math>   p      =  p_0 +  ( p_0 + p^* / \gamma)  ( (\rho/\rho_0)^\gamma - 1) . </math>
-Comparing with the Cole EOS, we can readily identify
-:<math> B = p^* / \gamma  </math>
-Moreover, the Cole EOS differs slightly, as it should read (as indeed does in e.g. the book by Courant)
-:<math>p = A \left( \frac{\rho}{\rho_0} \right)^\gamma  - B ,</math>
-with
-:<math> A = p^* / \gamma  + p_0 . </math>
-This difference is negligible for liquids but for an ideal gas <math>p^*=0</math> and there is a huge
-difference, ''B'' being zero and ''A'' being equal to the reference pressure.
-Now, the speed of sound is given by
-:<math>   c^2=\frac{dp}{d\rho}  </math>
-with the derivative taken along an adiabatic line. This is precisely our case, and we readily obtain
-:<math>   c^2=  ( p_0 + p^* / \gamma) \gamma /\rho_0 . </math>
-From this expression a value of <math>p^*</math> can be deduced. For water, <math>p^*\approx 23000</math> bar,
-from which <math>B\approx 3000</math> bar. If the speed of sound is used in the EOS one obtains the rather
-elegant expression
-:<math>   p      =  p_0 +  ( \rho_0 c^2 / \gamma)  ( (\rho/\rho_0)^\gamma - 1) . </math>
