MTE 3280 - Thermodynamics of Materials (3)

Macroscopic thermodynamics, the study of energy and its transformations, as it applies to the field of materials in the solid and liquid state. Detailed topics to be covered are the first and second law, property relationships, equilibrium, electrochemistry, solutions and mixing, phase rule and phase diagrams. In addition, an introduction to microscopic thermodynamics or statistical thermodynamics will be included as it applies to the understanding of the macroscopic properties and behavior of materials.
