Partial Pressure Contour Diagram
The following example shows how to calculate the contour lines for the partial pressure of the gas phase in the Ti-N system [1996Zen]. Figure 1 (a) is the input condition window and Figure 1 (b) is the calculated phase diagram of Ti-N with the contour lines of log(P(N2@gas)) (pressure unit is Pa), which is the common logarithm of the partial pressure of N2 in gas. Figure 1 (c) is another input condition window and Figure 1 (d) is the calculated phase diagram of Ti-N with the contour lines of log(P(@gas)), which is the common logarithm of the total pressure of gas with the gas species N, N2, N3 and Ti.
