MH1028 Computational Thermodynamics for Materials Design 6.0 credits

- Basic thermodynamics for unary, binary and higher-order systems

- Thermodynamic models based on erxample Gibbs energy

- Gibbs energy and driving force

 - Phase equilibria and phase diagrams

- Thermodynamic computations

- The Calphad methodology

After the course the students should have basic knowledge of:
- Thermodynamics of unary, binary and higher-order systems
- Thermodynamic models for phases with sublattice (called Compound Energy Formalism)
and be able to
- Perform simple thermodynamic calculations using computer programs
- Calculate and use phase diagrams
- Use both Swedish and English terminology
- Basicconcepts in the Calphad methodology

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• LAB1 - Computer Exercise, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
• TEN1 - Written examination, 3.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
