The image above represents the conversion of volume fraction to mass fraction. To calculate conversion of volume fraction to mass fraction, four essential parameters are needed and these parameters are α-phase Volume Fraction (Vα), β-phase Volume Fraction (Vβ), α-phase Density (ρα) and β-phase Density (ρβ).
The formula for calculating volume fraction to mass fraction:
Wα = Vαρα/(Vαρα) + (Vβρβ)
Wβ = Vβρβ/(Vαρα) + (Vβρβ)
Where:
Wα = α-phase Weight/Mass Fraction
Wβ = β-phase Weight/Mass Fraction
Vα = α-phase Volume Fraction
Vβ = β-phase Volume Fraction
ρα = α-phase Density
ρβ = β-phase Density
Let’s solve an example;
Find the conversion of volume fraction to mass fraction when the α-phase volume fraction is 4, the β-phase volume fraction is 7, the α-phase density is 11 and the β-phase density is 10.
This implies that;
Vα = α-phase Volume Fraction = 4
Vβ = β-phase Volume Fraction = 7
ρα = α-phase Density = 11
ρβ = β-phase Density = 10
Wα = (4)(11)/((4)(11)) + ((7)(10))
That is, Wα = (44)/(44) + (70)
Wα = (44)/(114)
Wα = 0.38
Therefore, the α-phase mass fraction, Wα is 0.38.
Wβ = (7)(10)/((4)(11)) + ((7)(10))
Wβ = (70)/(44) + (70)
So, Wβ = (70)/(114)
Wβ = 0.614
Therefore, the β-phase mass fraction, Wβ is 0.614.
