Input + is parallel to the input for the keyword MIX, which is a series of user number and + fraction pairs. Mixtures can be formed of solutions, exchangers, equilibrium_phases, + gas phases, kinetic reactions, solid solutions, and surfaces. Synonyms of keywords + are in parentheses. + + SOLUTION_MIX (MIX_SOLUTION) + EXCHANGE_MIX (MIX_EXCHANGE) + EQUILIBRIUM_PHASES_MIX (MIX_EQUILIBRIUM_PHASES, EQUILIBRIUM_PHASE_MIX, MIX_EQUILIBRIUM_PHASE) + GAS_PHASE_MIX (MIX_GAS_PHASE) + KINETICS_MIX (MIX_KINETICS) + SOLID_SOLUTIONS_MIX (MIX_SOLID_SOLUTIONS, SOLID_SOLUTIONS_MIX, MIX_SOLID_SOLUTION) + SURFACE_MIX (MIX_SURFACE) + + These _MIX keywords do not invoke any type of speciation or reaction calculation + and mostly involve a summation of moles of the various reactants. Thus, MIX differs + from SOLUTION_MIX in that MIX produces a reaction calculation and a distribution of + species, whereas SOLUTION_MIX does not. The final events of a simulation occur in the + order of RUN_CELLS, _MIX, COPY, DUMP, and DELETE. + + Here is an example of SOLUTION_MIX, which creates a mixture of previously defined + solutions: + + SOLUTION_MIX 2-4 # new solutions 2, 3 and 4: + 1 0.5 # solution number, fraction + 4 1.5 # solution number, fraction + 6 0.3 # etc. + ----------------- January 31, 2019 -----------------
