The image of total a-phase mass fraction is represented below. To calculate total a-phase mass fraction, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Hypo-Eutectic Phase (P), Hypo-Eutectic Phase (Q) and Hypo-Eutectic Phase (Q).
The formula for calculating a-phase mass fraction:
Wα = (Q + R)/(P + Q + R)
Where:
Wα = Total α-phase Mass Fraction
P, Q = Hypo-Eutectic Phases
R = Hyper-Eutectic Phase
Given an example;
Find the total a-phase mass fraction when the hypo-eutectic mass fraction is 4, the hypo-eutectic phase is 8 and the hyper-eutectic phase is 10.
This implies that;
P = Hypo-Eutectic Phase = 4
Q = Hypo-Eutectic Phase = 8
R = Hyper-Eutectic Phase = 10
Wα = (Q + R)/(P + Q + R)
That is, Wα = (8 + 10)/(4 + 8 + 10)
Wα = (18)/(22)
Wα = 0.818
Therefore, the Total a-Phase Mass Fraction is 0.818.
