Abstract

The nickel-silicon system has been the subject of some interest in recent years. The present work has the aim of describing this binary system thermodynamically using the most recent experimental data and computational facilities. This has been done by the CALPHAD method, and two different models for the liquid were tested. The order-disorder transformation of Ni3Si has been modeled using a sublattice model.
