Debye Model EoS

Information

Debye-model Equation of State (EoS), appropriate for the phonon contribution in solids.

Energy density:

e = 3 n k T D3(x)

where n is the number density of atoms, D3(x) is the third Debye function, x=TD/T, and TD is the Debye temperature:

TD = [h cs / (2 k)] (6 n / π)1/3 

cs being the sound speed in the material (value obtainable via the parameter, *.c_s).

With proper values of TD (in K), the atomic mass (in Da), and the mass density (as parameters), this block will provide the energy density (in J m-3) as a function of the input temperature (in K): e(T). The specific heat capacity, cv(T) (in J kg-1 K-1), is also calculated from the derivative wrt T:

cv = [e/T - 9 n k (B(x)-D3(x))] / ρ = n k [12 D3(x) - 9 B(x)] / ρ 

where ρ is the mass density, B(x)=x/(exp(x)-1), and we have used xD'3(x)=3[B(x)-D3(x)] .

The default parameter values are those appropriate for copper.
