The Use of Computer Mathematics Systems for Solving Some Problems of Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics

With the help of the MathCAD mathematical package, solutions to problems using the heat balance equation were obtained, in which the heat capacity was calculated according to Debye theory, and spline interpolation of experimental data on heat capacity from the reference book was also used. The degree of helium ionization at a given temperature is calculated. An example of the influence of lithium impurity on the degree of hydrogen ionization is considered. The energy and pressure of neon in the region of multiple ionization are calculated. Isotherms of an ideal fermi gas are con structed. A graph of the Fermi-Dirac distribution function for various temperatures is constructed. The concentration of electrons and positrons at temperatures corresponding to the rest energy of electrons is calculated. These examples can be used in the educational process.
