VISHO: A Computer Subroutine for Estimating the Viscosity and Density of Complex Silicate Melts.

摘要

A Fortran IV computer subroutine for calculating the viscosity and density of complex silicate melts at temperatures in the range of 1200 to 1800 exp 0 C is described. Viscosity estimates are made from published correlations of data for 17 formal constituents in melts of 81 to 35 mole percent silicon dioxide. Density estimates are made from temperature-dependent, partial molar volumes of 20 formal species. Options are incorporated in the routine to directly compute the dependencies of viscosity and density on the temperature and composition of the melt. (ERA citation 02:049273)
