Basic Concept

  • phase: homogeneous part of system
  • equilibrium state: a state of a system in which macroscopic variables have definite values that remain constant as long as the external conditions are unchanged
  • relaxation time: τ\tau, the time system needs to adjust itself to follow the change of the surrounding.
  • state avariables

    • chemical: n,xin, x_i
  • extensive: F(n)=nF(1)
  • intensive: F(n)=F(1)
