Calculation of a temperature–volume phase diagram of water to inform the study of isochoric freezing down to cryogenic temperatures

Abstract
) that occur amongst the phases of pure water under isochoric or confined conditions, and calculate the phase fraction evolution of ice Ih with temperature along multiple isochores of interest to experimental isochoric freezing. This work provides a requisite baseline upon which to extend the study of isochoric freezing to cryogenic temperatures, with potential applications in thermodynamic metrology, cryovolcanism, and cryopreservation.
