Abstract :
“ExTherm 2” shows clear advances over ExTHERM as presented in [J. Tomiska, CALPHAD 26 (2002) 143–154]: All three parts have been improved in powerfulness, comfort, and interactive work. Especially the module cM3_ is now designed for interactive evaluation by means of an overall best fit technique applicable on experimental data from calorimetric and vapor pressure measurements as well as from measurements on the electromotive force (emf) on all types of metal alloy. The new data bank module cM1_(ETD/ ExP/ PhD) is an easy-to-handle tool for interactive work in many applications in physical chemistry. The data bank ETD has been enlarged by a series of new molar mixing properties of all types of metal alloy systems, and two sub-modules are added: The first tool, ExP, makes extrapolating binary data to a high number of ternary systems of all types of metal alloy possible. And the second tool, PhD, is designed for simple interactive computations on binary phase diagrams, especially for education items.
