Abstract

The thermodynamic modeling of the Ruthenium–Yttrium binary system was carried out with the help of CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagram) method. Ru2Y, Ru2Y3, Ru25Y44, Ru2Y5, and RuY3 have been treated as stoichiometric compounds while a solution model has been used for the description of the liquid, BCC_A2, and HCP_A3 phases. The calculations based on the thermodynamic modeling are in good agreement with the phase diagram data and experimental thermodynamic values available in the literature.
