Abstract

A simple electron band theory model of the heat of formation ΔH, of transition metal alloys is used to predict Δ for 276 transition metal alloys at equiatomic composition. The model employs a rectangular d-band electron density of states. Some of the input parameters, namely bandwidth, Fermi level position, and number of electrons in the band, are allowed to vary within certain constraints, to closely approximate any known value of ΔH. The resulting predictions are considered to have errors of the same order as the experiments.
