Future direction of FactSage


F

• FactSage was always developed from a university environment;

• Historically a strong emphasis has been given to thermodynamic and physical property model developments:

– Modified Quasichemical Model (1 subl. Pair, 2 subl. Pair, 2 subl. Quads)

– Unified Interaction Parameter Formalism;

– Viscosity (slags, salts, metals);

– Electrical conductivity and ionic mobilities;

– etc…

The FactSage development team remains fully dedicated to keep a strong fundamental background to CALPHAD type of modeling.

Future direction of FactSage


F

Thermodynamic models & databases

Physical properties database - Mobility (atoms, ions, …) - Viscosity - Molar volume/density - Thermal/electrical properties - Surface tension

Solidification simulation

Development of special process simulation tools for industrial applications
