How to Calculate and Solve for α-Phase Computation | Phase Transformation
Last Updated on December 10, 2022
The α-Phase Computation is represented by the image below.
To compute for α-Phase Computation, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Solid Phase (S) and Phase at Lever Rule (R).
The formula for calculating a-phase computation:
Wα = R/(R + S)
Where:
Wα = α-Phase Computation
R = Phase at Lever Rule
S = Solid Phase
Let’s solve an example;
Find the a-phase computation when the phase at lever rule is 24 and the solid phase is 8.
This implies that;
R = Phase at Lever Rule = 24
S = Solid Phase = 8
Wα = R/(R + S)
Wα = 8/(8 + 24)
Wα = 8/(32)
Wα = 0.25
Therefore, the a-phase computation is 0.25.
