Applications of FactSage in the Energy Research

/ Data, FactSage /
evolution of number of publications of factsage in the energy area

In the scope of a preparation work for a project proposal, a literature research was conducted on the applications of FactSage in the areas of combustion and gasification of fossil and renewable carbon-containing raw materials. The research included not only the important coal- and biomass-based fuels, but also all kinds of carbon-containing industrial and domestic […]

Casting Case Study: Refractory-melt interactions

/ Data, Equilib Module, FactSage /
Casting with bottom teeming

In the scope of the collaborative research center SFB 761, von Schweinichen(*) experimentally investigated the chemical interactions between a high manganese steel melt and different refractory materials employed in assembling an adequate casting system. Normally, when casting in an open atmosphere, one expects worse results considering cleanliness for a top pouring process (Figure 1) than
