Thermodynamic integration is used to calculate the difference in the Helmholtz energy function, Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A} , between two states. The path must be continuous and reversible (Ref. 1 Eq. 3.5)

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \Delta A = A(\lambda) - A(\lambda_0) = \int_{\lambda_0}^{\lambda} \left\langle \frac{\partial U(\mathbf{r},\lambda)}{\partial \lambda} \right\rangle_{\lambda} ~\mathrm{d}\lambda}

Isothermal integration

At constant temperature (Ref. 2 Eq. 5):

Isobaric integration

At constant pressure (Ref. 2 Eq. 6):
