Abstract

The Calculation of Phase Diagrams (CALPHAD) method uses models that reproduce and predict phase equilibria and thermochemical behavior. To date, the CALPHAD approach has been applied to the KCl-MgCl2 psuedobinary only. The two-sublattice modified quasi chemical (MQM) model, already developed for the KCl-MgCl2 melt and used extensively within the CALPHAD community to represent molten salts, is extended in this work to include excess K and Mg. Phase relations calculated using the MQM is compared to experimentally observed behavior for the K-KCl binary system. Gaps in the experimental data are identified and recommendations are given for better understanding the thermochemistry and phase equilibria.
