CALCULATE_FROM_GAS
This command is for the SCHEIL module.
The CALCULATE_FROM_GAS command enables or disables the calculation of equilibria starting from the gas/liquid temperature, i.e. from the temperature above which the liquid phase is no longer stable. By default this is disabled (set to N
). Enable this (set to Y
) to perform single equilibrium calculations at 5 Kelvin (K) intervals in the two-phase region between the gas/liquid temperature and the liquid/gas temperature, which is the temperature below which the gas phase is no longer stable.
In the fully liquid region below the liquid/gas temperature single equilibrium calculations are performed at 50 K intervals until the liquidus temperature is reached. After that the Scheil solidification calculation proceeds as usual.
