Online resources: Summary: A timely, applications-driven text in thermodynamics Materials Thermodynamics provides both students and professionals with the in-depth explanation they need to prepare for the real-world application of thermodynamic tools. Based upon an actual graduate course taught by the authors, this class-tested text covers the subject with a broader, more industry-oriented lens than can be found in any other resource available. This modern approach: Reflects changes rapidly occurring in society at large-from the impact of computers on the teaching of thermodynamics in materials science and engineering university programs to the use of approximations of higher order than the usual Bragg-Williams in solution-phase modeling Makes students aware of the practical problems in using thermodynamics Emphasizes that the calculation of the position of phase and chemical equilibrium in complex systems, even when properly defined, is not easy Relegates concepts like equilibrium constants, activity coefficients, free energy functions, and Gibbs-Duhem integrations to a relatively minor role Includes problems and exercises, as well as a solutions manual This authoritative text is designed for students and professionals in materials science and engineering, particularly those in physical metallurgy, metallic materials, alloy design and processing, corrosion, oxidation, coatings, and high-temperature alloys.Summary: MATERIALS THERMODYNAMICS -- Contents -- Preface -- Quantities, Units, and Nomenclature -- 1 Review of Fundamentals -- 1.1 Systems, Surroundings, and Work -- 1.2 Thermodynamic Properties -- 1.3 The Laws of Thermodynamics -- 1.4 The Fundamental Equation -- 1.5 Other Thermodynamic Functions -- 1.5.1 Maxwell's Equations -- 1.5.2 Defining Other Forms of Work -- 1.6 Equilibrium State -- Exercises -- 2 Thermodynamics of Unary Systems -- 2.1 Standard State Properties -- 2.2 The Effect of Pressure -- 2.2.1 Gases -- 2.2.2 Condensed Phases -- 2.3 The Gibbs-Duhem Equation -- 2.4 Experimental Methods -- Exercises -- 3 Calculation of Thermodynamic Properties of Unary Systems -- 3.1 Constant-Pressure/Constant-Volume Conversions -- 3.2 Excitations in Gases -- 3.2.1 Perfect Monatomic Gas -- 3.2.2 Molecular Gases -- 3.3 Excitations in Pure Solids -- 3.4 The Thermodynamic Properties of a Pure Solid -- 3.4.1 Inadequacies of the Model -- Exercises -- 4 Phase Equilibria in Unary Systems -- 4.1 The Thermodynamic Condition for Phase Equilibrium -- 4.2 Phase Changes -- 4.2.1 The Slopes of Boundaries in Phase Diagrams -- 4.2.2 Gibbs Energy Changes for Phase Transformations -- 4.3 Stability and Critical Phenomena -- 4.4 Gibbs's Phase Rule -- Exercises -- 5 Thermodynamics of Binary Solutions I: Basic Theory and Application to Gas Mixtures -- 5.1 Expressing Composition -- 5.2 Total (Integral) and Partial Molar Quantities -- 5.2.1 Relations between Partial and Integral Quantities -- 5.2.2 Relation between Partial Quantities: the Gibbs-Duhem Equation -- 5.3 Application to Gas Mixtures -- 5.3.1 Partial Pressures -- 5.3.2 Chemical Potentials in Perfect Gas Mixtures -- 5.3.3 Real Gas Mixtures: Component Fugacities and Activities -- Exercises -- 6 Thermodynamics of Binary Solutions II: Theory and Experimental Methods -- 6.1 Ideal Solutions -- 6.1.1 Real Solutions.PPN: PPN: 807303674Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-26-MYL | ZDB-30-PQE | ZDB-30-PAD | ZDB-30-PUP
