Detailed Description

These classes are used to represent the composition and state of a single phase of matter.

Together these classes form the basis for describing the species and element compositions of a phase as well as the stoichiometry of each species, and for describing the current state of the phase. They do not in themselves contain Thermodynamic equation of state information. However, they do comprise all of the necessary background functionality to support thermodynamic calculations (see Thermodynamic Properties).
