Course Description
The thermodynamic principles of phase equilibrium and phase transition are the basis for understanding and designing the material properties,the key is on the nature of the phase diagram.Through the study of this course, students will understand the basic theory of thermodynamics, master the new development of the phase diagram analysis method and measurement technology, and lay the necessary foundation to engage in scientific research in the future.
