The detailed syllabus for Physical Metallurgy B.Tech 2016-2017 (R16) second year first sem is as follows.
B.Tech. II Year I Sem. L/T/P/C
Course Code: MM302ES 4/1/0/0
Course Objective:
This theory course will help the students get introduced to various metals and alloys that are industrially applied, their crystal, microstructures and phase transformation that take place with temperature and compositional changes
Course Outcomes: at the end of the course, the student will be able to
- Appreciate the wide range of characteristics of metals due to crystal structure variation
- Understand the phase transformations taking place in Fe-C binary phase diagram
- Construct the T-T-T diagrams for particular steel
- Suggest the heat treatment process for a particular metallic system
UNIT – I Crystal Structure:
