FUNCTION MAP_STEEL_FTO1(H,S,X,T,W,W1,H1,S1,F,AJ,AJ1,R)

Description

MAP_STEEL_FTO1 calculates the free energy change accompanying the transformation from austenite to ferrite of the same chemical composition, including a Zener ordering term. The latter describes the ordering of carbon atoms that leads to the the body-centred cubic lattice of ferrite becoming body-centred tetragonal. The degree of ordering increases as the carbon concentration increases, or as the transformation temperature decreases.

Parameters

Input parameters

H - real
H is the excess partial molar enthalpy of solution of carbon in austenite (in joules per mole, Jmol-1).

S - real
S is the excess partial molar entropy of solution of carbon in austenite (in joules per mole per kelvin, Jmol-1K-1).

X - real
X is the mole fraction of carbon in the ferrite.

T - real
T is the temperature (in kelvin).

W - real
W is the carbon-carbon interaction energy in austenite (in joules per mole, Jmol-1).

W1 - real
W1 is the carbon-carbon interaction energy in ferrite (in joules per mole, Jmol-1).

H1 - real
H1 is the excess partial molar enthalpy of solution of carbon in ferrite (in joules per mole, Jmol-1).

S1 - real
S1 is the excess partial molar entropy of solution of carbon in ferrite (in joules per mole per kelvin, Jmol-1K-1).

F - real
F is the energy (in joules).

AJ - real
AJ = 1 - e(W/RT), where R is the universal gas constant.

AJ1 - real
AJ1 = 1 - e(W1/RT), where R is the universal gas constant.

R - real
R is the universal gas constant (in joules per mole per kelvin, Jmol-1K-1).
