pycalphad: Computational Thermodynamics

pycalphad is a Python library for computational thermodynamics using the CALPHAD method. Because pycalphad is still in the alpha phase of development, documentation is a work in progress.

The latest development version of the source code can be found on GitHub. The newest stable version can be found on PyPI.
