Abstract
Abstract A method for the calculation of the thermodynamic functions in the three-dimensional using model near the phase transition is proposed. In the frame of a uniform approach, the critical exponents and the critical amplitudes of the main characteristics of the model (i.e. free energy, enthropy, specific heat, etc.) are obtained as functions of microscopic Hamiltonian parameters. It is shown that the correct sign and temperature behaviour of the entropy are provided due to the contribution of the long-wave spin moment modes. The short-wave ones are responsible for the values of the critical exponents.
