At GTT-Technologies,
we help you to navigate in chemical space.
Thermochemical databases = Map of chemical space
ChemApp is a programmer’s library that permits the calculation of complex, multicomponent, multiphase chemical equilibria and their associated extensive property balances. With the Equi2Py module in FactSage 8.3, you can effortlessly set up thermochemical systems and smoothly transition to the ChemApp for Python scripts, reducing the complexity of setting up thermochemical experiments for anyone, even those with no programming experience.
Metallurgical process modelling including full solution thermodynamics
Stream calculations in ChemApp for Python
Integration of direct reduction furnaces into the plant flowsheet requires considering certain data for estimation or simulation. Stream calculation in ChemApp for Python allows setting initial conditions in addition to general boundary conditions. This enables quick calculation of heat balances and modeling scenarios like mixing hot air with a cold aqueous solution.
Process informed alloy design
High throughput screening with ChemApp
| Property | Predicted | Calculated |
|---|---|---|
| Liquidus T (°C) | 1209 | 1195 |
| Solidus T (°C) | 1127 | 1162 |
| Tms (°C) | 205 | 207 – 228 |
| Production cost (€/kg) | 22 | – |
| Density (g/cm³) | 7.8 | – |
765,000 compositions were assessed based on materials and process criteria, resulting in the identification of 168 promising hardfacing alloy compositions after high-throughput screening.
