Thermodynamics of phase

Equation (4-8) is the fundamental property relation for singlephase PVT systems, from which all other equations connecting properties of such systems are derived. The quantity is called the chemical potential of ecies i, and it plays a vital role in the thermodynamics of phase ana chemical equilibria. 

The book begins with a chapter describing the history and growth of CALPHAD. This provides a useful point of departure for a more detailed account of the various strands which make up the CALPHAD approach. Chapters 3 and 4 then deal with the basic thermodynamics of phase diagrams and the principles of various experimental techniques. This is because one of basic pillars of the CALPHAD approach is the concept of coupling phase diagram information with all other available thermodynamic properties. It is a key factor in the assessment and characterisation of the lower-order systems on which the properties of the higher-...
