Annotation -
Thermodynamic calculations are common part of theoretical modeling of various processes of preparation, treating and utilization of materials. The course Equilibria in Heterogeneous Systems is focused on this field and, in advanced form, goes over pVT relations and thermodynamic properties of solids, experimental as well as theoretical (computational) methods for their determination and methodology of phase and chemical equilibrium calculations in complex heterogeneous systems (including systems with significant influence of surfaces and interfaces). Practical demonstrations of the FacfSage system and model thermodynamic calculations are also included.

Aim of the course -

Students will be able to:

Apply proper thermodynamic models for various types of melts and solid solutions.

Assess reliability of experimentally determined, empirically estimated and theoretical calculated thermodynamic data.

Calculate of equilibrium composition of complex heterogeneous systems including those with significant influence of surfaces and interfaces.
