Parameters and Variables

Below is a summary of the available thermophysical parameters and variables for the databases when working in Thermo‑Calc. There are differences when you are working in Console Mode versus Graphical Mode as well as if you use an SDK such as TC‑Python or TC-Toolbox for MATLAB®.

For kinematic viscosity, also see the information about corresponding variables in Viscosity of the Metallic Liquids Model.

Property	Model Parameters	Variables to Show or Plot in Console Mode and the SDKs (i.e. TC-Python or TC-Toolbox for MATLAB®)
Surface tension	SIGM	`SURF(ION)`
Dynamic viscosity	VISC	`DVIS(LIQUID)` `DVIS(ION)`
Kinematic viscosity		`KVIS(LIQUID)` `KVIS(ION)`
Molar volume	V0, VA	`VM` for a system ; `VM(PHI)` for phase PHI
Electrical conductivity/resistivity	ELQ, ELRS	`ELCD/ELRS` for a system; `ELCD/ELRS(PHI)` for phase PHI
Thermal conductivity/resistivity	THCD	`THCD/THRS` for a system; `THCD/THRS(PHI)` for phase PHI
