Reactions Sequential reactions
SAVE and USE • Save results of calculations • Use previously defined SOLUTIONS, EQUILIBRIUM_PHASES, REACTIONs, etc • Use previously SAVEd SOLUTIONS, EQUILBRIUM_PHASES, etc
SAVE results from a “Reaction Calculation” Note: SOLUTION defines an “initial solution” calculation, which is automatically saved. Index numbers are used to keep track Index numbers do not need to be sequential
USE: Previously defined or SAVEd • USE includes KINETICS, MIX, REACTION, and REACTION_TEMPERATURE • Can USE previously SAVEd EQUILIBRIUM_PHASES, EXCHANGE, SOLID_SOLUTION, SOLUTION, or SURFACE
REACTION: Reactants and stoichiometry • Choose phase or type formula • Define relative stoichiometry
REACTION: Reaction amounts • Steps are a number of equal increments or • Steps are a specified list • Specify units
“Initial Solution” and Reaction CalculationsThe inscrutable END • Initial Solution/Speciation calculation—every SOLUTION • Reaction calculation—SOLUTION + reactant before END • Reactant may be any reactant keyword data block • USE can define solution or reactant • END—Do speciation and reaction • END—defines a “Simulation”
