Thermodynamic and Elastic Properties of Interstitial Alloy FeC with BCC Structure at Zero Pressure

Abstract EN

The analytic expressions for the thermodynamic and elastic quantities such as the mean nearest neighbor distance, the free energy, the isothermal compressibility, the thermal expansion coefficient, the heat capacities at constant volume and at constant pressure, the Young modulus, the bulk modulus, the rigidity modulus, and the elastic constants of binary interstitial alloy with body-centered cubic (BCC) structure, and the small concentration of interstitial atoms (below 5%) are derived by the statistical moment method.

The theoretical results are applied to interstitial alloy FeC in the interval of temperature from 100 to 1000 K and in the interval of interstitial atom concentration from 0 to 5%.

In special cases, we obtain the thermodynamic quantities of main metal Fe with BCC structure.

Our calculated results for some thermodynamic and elastic quantities of main metal Fe and alloy FeC are compared with experiments.
