Thermophysical Parameters and Variables

Below is a summary of the available thermophysical parameters and variables for the databases when working in Thermo‑Calc. There are differences when you are working in Console Mode versus Graphical Mode as well as if you use an SDK such as TC‑Python or TC-Toolbox for MATLABĀ®.
