Congruent melting of γ Ni-Ti Eutectoid trnsformtion + 48 The Gis Phse Rule The phse rule llows one to determine the numer of degrees of freedom (F) or vrince of chemicl system. This is useful for interpreting phse digrms. P + F = C + N where P is the numer of phses present F is the numer of degrees of freedom or the numer of externlly controlled vriles (e.g., temperture, pressure, composition). C is the numer of components in the system. N is the numer of noncompositionl vriles (e.g., temperture nd pressure).
