FToxid - the FACT Oxide Databases FToxid solution database - Major Oxide Solutions Slag: CaO-MgO-Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -FeO-Fe 2 O 3 -MnO-Mn 2 O 3 -Ti2O 3 -TiO 2 + gas solubility such as S (SO2), P, H (OH), N, C, F Spinel: (Al, Co 2+, Co 3+, Cr 2+, Cr 3+, Fe 2+, Fe 3+, Mg, Ni 2+, Zn) [Al, Co 2+, Co 3+, Cr 3+, Fe 2+, Fe 3+, Mg, Ni 2+, Zn, ] 2 O 4 Pyroxenes: (Ca, Fe 2+, Mg) M2 (Fe 2+, Fe 3+, Mg, Al ) M1 (Fe 3+, Al, Si) B Si A O 6 Olivine: (Ca, Fe 2+, Mg, Mn, Ni, Co, Zn) [Ca, Fe 2+, Mg, Mn, Ni, Co, Zn] SiO 4 Melilite: (Ca) 2 [Mg, Fe 2+, Fe 3+, Al, Zn] {Fe 3+, Al, Si} 2 O 7 Monoxide: CaO - MgO - MnO - CoO - NiO - FeO (+ Fe 2 O 3 - Al 2 O 3 - ZnO - Cr 2 O 3 ) a-ca 2 SiO 4 : a-ca 2 SiO 4 ( + Fe 2 SiO 4, Mg 2 SiO 4, Mn 2 SiO 4 ) a -Ca 2 SiO 4 : a -Ca 2 SiO 4 ( + Fe 2 SiO 4, Mg 2 SiO 4, Mn 2 SiO 4, Pb 2 SiO 4, Zn 2 SiO 4 ) Wollastonite: CaSiO 3 ( + FeSiO 3, MgSiO 3, MnSiO 3 ) Corundum: Al 2 O 3 - Cr 2 O 3 - Fe 2 O 3 Ilmenite: (Fe 2+, Mg, Mn, Ti 3+ ) (Ti 4+, Ti 3+ )O 3 Pseudobrookite: (Fe 2+, Mg, Mn, Ti 3+ ) (Ti 4+, Ti 3+ ) 2 O 5 26 other solid solutions oxide compounds with 355 phases in the FToxid pure substances database FactSage 5
6 1. Many Types of Databases Typical databases and phases used in iron and steel processing : FactPS - FACT pure substances - all gaseous species, stoichiometric solid and liquid species; FToxid - FACT oxides - many solution phases (slag, spinel, monoxide, olivine, etc.) and pure solid and liquid oxides (but no gas phase); FTmisc -FACT miscellaneous - FeLq liquid solution phase. For steelmaking calculations (slags / refractories / gases / molten iron), or FSstel - FactSage steel - solid and liquid steel phases and also includes a number of gases, oxides, sulfides, nitrides, etc. For steel solidification and alloy design. When more than one database is used in an equilibrium calculation, there may be duplicate and possibly conflicting data for the same compound species. In FactSage 6.4 an automatic exclusion strategy is applied to compound species such that duplicate or conflicting species are no longer selected. FactSage 6
7 2. Equilib Module - Many Types of Calculations Equilib calculates the conditions for multiphase, multicomponent equilibria, with a wide variety of tabular and graphical output modes, under a large range of constraints through Gibbs energy minimization. There are many different types of calculations, for example : Equilibrium using data from single or multiple databases Scheil-Gulliver and Equilibrum Cooling Casting software Open calculations Viscosities of slags and glasses Simulation of processes macro processing Streams and recycling Fact-XML customized output tables, spreadsheets, graphs Fact-Function-Builder customized functions FactOptimal identify the optimal conditions for alloy and process design using thermodynamic and property databases FactSage 7
8 2. Equilib desulfurizing a steel by CaSi. Mixing databases Reactants Compounds from FactPS, FTmisc & FToxid conflicting & duplicate species automatically excluded Solutions from FTmisc and FToxid Final conditions: <A> = T = 1627 C P = 1 atm and Calculate >> FactSage 8
9 2. Equilib - desulfurizing a steel by CaSi addition Mixing 3 databases FactPS, FTmisc, FToxid Gas phase, mainly Ar - FactPS database Liquid steel FTmisc database Slag containing sulfur FToxid database No solids (activity<1) - mixed databases FactSage 9
10 2. Equilib Macro Processing simulation of BOF Equilib Macro Processing simulation of the Basic Oxygen Steelmaking process, where the hot metal is refined into raw liquid steel Schematic representation of the reaction zones in the BOF process: (a) soft blowing period; (b) medium and hard blowing periods Simulation results: Top - change in metal composition Bottom - change in slag composition FactSage 10
11 2. Equilib Macro Processing simulation of ISASMELT FactSage 11
12 3. Viscosities of slags and glasses There are two viscosity databases for oxide solutions. The melts database for liquid and super-cooled slags where viscosities are not too high: Al 2 O 3 -B 2 O 3 -CaO-FeO-Fe 2 O 3 -K 2 O-MgO-MnO-Na 2 O-NiO-PbO -SiO 2 -TiO 2 -Ti 2 O 3 -ZnO-F - melts The glasses database at and below the glass transition temperatures: Al 2 O 3 -B 2 O 3 -CaO-K 2 O-MgO-Na 2 O-PbO-SiO 2 - glasses In principle, the glasses database is valid over the whole temperature range from liquid melts to glasses, but sometimes it is slightly less accurate for liquid slags than the melts database.

14 4. FactOptimal - minimizes and/or maximizes a set of functions FactOptimal identifies the optimal conditions for alloy and process design uses Equilib and the Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) algorithm. FactOptimal minimizes and/or maximizes a set of functions: { f1(x1, x2... T, P); f2(x1, x2...t, P) } where the functions f (e.g. T, P, V, heat, mass, density, conductivity, ) are calculated by Equilib the functions may be non-smooth (e.g. liquidus ) the estimation of derivatives may be problematic the evaluations of f may be time consuming the function calculation may fail unexpectedly at some points the constraints may be non-linear, non-smooth or Boolean FactSage 14
15 4. FactOptimal - minimum liquidus temperature of Al-Cu-Zn-Mg FactOptimal locates the optimal composition of the alloy that minimizes the liquidus temperature and respects the constraints Constraints: X(Al) +X(Cu) < 0.2 r < 2.2 g/ml cost < $2,900/Ton Minimum T o C Composition at the minimum T Plot of T o C vs # of Calcs. Values of the constraints: Al + Cu = r = g/ml cost = $2,900/Ton FactSage 15
16 Log [ (Poise)] 4. FactOptimal : minimum viscosity of steelmaking slags FactOptimal calculates optimum composition - minimizes the viscosity of the slag - minimizes the liquidus temperature - satisfies the constraints on composition Steelmaking slag : CaO-MgO-Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -FeO-CaF 2 Cpt.

20 5. Phase Diagram - many types of phase diagrams For phase diagram calculations the axes and constants are various combinations of the variables T, 1/TK, P, log(p), RTln(P), V, log(v), log(a), Eh, ph, H and X. Type Y-axis X-axis 1 T P, log P, V, log V 2 P, log P, V, log V T 3 RTln(a), log(a) P, log(p) 4 P, log(p) RTln(a), log(a) 5 RTln(a), log(a) T 6 T RTln(a), log(a) 7 RTln(a), log(a) T 8 Eh ph (Pourbaix diagram) 9 V, log(v) X 10 H X 11 P, log(p) X 12 T X (classical temperature vs. composition) 13 RTln(a) X 14 X X (isothermal X vs Y section) 15 X X (isothermal Gibbs ternary) 16 X X (polythermal X vs Y projection) 17 X X (polythermal Gibbs ternary) T = temperature (or 1/TK), P = total pressure, V = total volume, H = enthalpy, a = activity (or fugacity), X = composition (mole fraction, weight fraction) FactSage 20
