计算物理和热力学及统计物理课程中二元流体相行为模拟案例教学研究

Study on Case Teaching of Binary Fluid Phase Behavior Simulation in Computational Physics, Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics

摘要: 计算物理和热力学及统计物理是物理学的两门重要的专业课程，在培养学生物理素养上起到重要作用。两门课程中繁多深奥的公式，使学生很难将公式和物理图像联系起来；并且课程涉及范围广泛，让学生较难较完整地掌握两门课程的完整体系。这导致学生感觉学习枯燥，产生厌学情绪，教授和学习效果不理想。本文以模拟由两种不同组分所组成的液体的相行为为例子，进行计算物理与热力学及统计物理教学协作，引导学生将两门课的相关知识灵活地应用到模拟中。希望通过这种协作可以降低学生学习这两门课程的难度，提高学生学习兴趣并培养学生解决问题的能力。

Abstract: Computational physics and thermodynamic and statistical physics are two very important professional physical courses, and play an important role in cultivating students’ physical literacy. However, so many formulas and equations make it difficult for students to understand what the formulas and equations illustrated. It is difficult for students to learn the course completely due to so many fields two courses covered. Students feel bored and weary when learning those courses. The teaching and learning are not efficient. In this paper, the phase behavior of liquid composed of two different components is simulated as an example, and the teaching collaboration between the two courses is carried out to guide students to flexibly apply the knowledge of the two courses to the simulation. This can make it easy to learn the two courses, improve students’ enthusiasm for learning and develop their ability to solve practical problems.
