Graphical Mode Activities vs Console Mode Modules

Run additive manufacturing (AM) simulations using the Add-on Additive Manufacturing (AM) Module. In addition, probe data generated from an AM calculation can be used with the Diffusion Calculator and/or Precipitation Calculator. Additional licenses are required for full access to this Add-on Module and/or the extended use of the probe data.

Calculate binary phase diagrams. Access to specific databases designed for BIN, such as TCBIN, is required.

Select appropriate databases, define chemical systems and retrieve the data required for calculations.

Run simulations of diffusion controlled transformations in Thermo‑Calc using the Diffusion Module (DICTRA). An additional license is required for full access to this Add-on Module.

This is to do data optimization for the Diffusion Module (DICTRA) and Precipitation Module (TC-PRISMA). It allows you to assess experimental data and use such data to optimize calculations. An additional license is required for full access to this Add-on Module.

Part of the PARROT submodule, use it to edit experimental data points to make reliable optimizations.

Handles thermodynamic models and quantities. Generally you do not need to use this, but you can get information about models, and list, add or amend the thermodynamic parameters in use.

Used for data optimization to assess experimental data and use the data to optimize calculations.

Set the conditions for, and perform, a precipitation calculation using the Precipitation Module (TC-PRISMA). An additional license is required for full access to this Add-on Module.

Predict and optimize material properties based on their chemical composition and temperature. There are preconfigured General Models available for all users and specialized material specific models such as Nickel Models, Noble Metal Alloys Models, Steel Models, and Titanium Models available with additional licenses.

Equilibrium calculation command module. Specify conditions and make calculations.

This is a submodule to POLY and is for post-processing and plotting of calculation results. Modify property and phase diagrams, add labels, change the diagram colors and so forth.

Calculate and plot gas potential diagrams in a ternary system. The potential of two gas species are used as the diagram axes.

Calculate and plot pH-Eh diagrams (Pourbaix diagrams) and property diagrams for heterogeneous interaction systems involving aqueous solutions.

Use this to model with the Process Metallurgy Module and for reactions that occur in metallurgical processes. Although primarily used in steelmaking and steel refining processes (such as basic oxygen furnaces, electric arc furnaces, ladle furnace metallurgy and so forth), applications are not limited to steelmaking. An additional license is required for full access to this Add-on Module.

Simulate chemical reaction processes in several feed-forward steady-state stages or in several dynamic stages.

Simulate and plot Scheil-Gulliver solidification processes with no diffusion in the solid phases and with/without consideration of back diffusion of interstitial components (such as C, N, O, S).

Interact with the operating system and change environmental settings. Create and execute macro files.

Tabulate properties of chemical reactions and substances (stoichiometric or solution phases).
