Abstract
Previously defined, explicit thermochemical formulations of the lattice stability, solution and compound parameters for twelve binary systems have been employed to compute sig-nificant numbers of isothermal sections in the ternary systems Cr-Ni-Fe, Co-Fe-Ni, Co-Cr-Fe, Co-Cr-Ni, Ni-Cr-Mo, Ni-Cb-Mo and Ni-Ti-Cr. The detailed results provide sufficient definition to locate lines of two-fold saturation, eutectic troughs and minima and complete liquidus projections in addition to providing complete thermochemical de-scriptions of the systems in question. Comparison of the calculated isothermal sections with the limited experimental results available yields good agreement.
