TCCU6 Elements, Systems, and Phases
This section summarizes the available elements, assessed systems, and total number of phases in the TCS Cu-based Alloys Database (TCCU).
Included Elements
There are 32 elements included in the most recent version of the database.

Assessed Systems and Phases
The most recent version of the database contains:
- 148 assessed binary systems, mostly to their full range of compositions, which can be calculated with the BINARY module in Thermo‑Calc Console Mode.
- 64 assessed ternary systems. These can be calculated with the TERNARY module in Thermo‑Calc Console Mode.
- 315 solution and intermetallic phases.
In Console Mode, you can list phases and constituents in the Database (TDB) module and the Gibbs (GES) module. For some phases, supplementary information is included in the definitions. To show the information, it is recommended in the Database (TDB) module to use the command List_System with the option Constituents.
The GAS phase is rejected by default when retrieving the data from the database. You have to manually restore it when it is required for a calculation. See TCCU6 Models for the Included Phases for details the models, e.g. number of sublattices and constituents on each sublattice.
