Abstract

Analytical liquidus equations were evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and differential thermal analysis (DTA). Results of 180 measurements in the Fe-C-Si-Mn-Al-P subsystems were considered, where the experimental methodology was demonstrated for four alloys in the Fe-Si-Mn-Al system. Excellent agreement between the DSC/DTA dataset and the most recently published equation was found (error 2.1 ± 1.6 °C). For this equation, suggested modifications of phosphorus parameters will help to improve calculations for P-alloyed steels.
