As an addition to the iron-carbon alloys to improve their strength and corrosion resistance, copper is of great importance for iron and steel industry and the Fe-Cu-C system has been extensively investigated. Aiming at a thermodynamic basis to investigate the effect of Cu addition on the Fe-C system, the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagrams) approach was utilized to assess the ternary Fe-Cu-C system including the binary Cu-C and Fe-C systems. The Redlich-Kister model, instead of the Modified Quasichemical Model (MQM) in previous work, was used to model the liquid phase. The parameters of the liquid phase in the Fe-C system from previous work have been slightly modified to fit better with new experimental data at high temperatures. One Fe/Cu/FeC0.05 (in wt%) diffusion couple was designed to further determine the phase equilibria of the ternary system. A set of self-consistent parameters for the Fe-Cu-C system was obtained after thermodynamic optimization. Good correspondence between calculated and experimental values of phase diagrams, thermodynamic properties, and liquidus projections has been achieved by the present thermodynamic description.
