There is a complete lack in the literature of thermodynamic <strong>da</strong>ta for the τ and τ'<br />

phases. Thermodynamic measurements for this phase, such as enthalpies of<br />

formation and Cp, are badly needed.<br />

2.4 The Cu-Mg-Si system<br />

The Cu­Mg­Si system displays one Laves phase, C15 and two nearstoichiometric<br />

ternary phases σ (CuióMgöSi?) and τ (Cu 3 Mg2Si). Published<br />

experimental information for the system is limited to the Cu­corner, where<br />

DTA and X­ray measurements have been reported in [60Asc]. For the<br />

thermodynamic assessment of the Cu­Mg­Si system, the partial and integral<br />

enthalpies of mixing, the activities of Mg in the liquid phase and DTA<br />

detenriinations of phase boun<strong>da</strong>ries reported in [97Gan] were used. The<br />

calculations are compared with experimental <strong>da</strong>ta in Figures 12 and 13. The<br />

invariant reactions which were used for the optimisation of the system are<br />

presented in Table 4.<br />

The measurements were carried out for the isopleth Cu7Si 3 + Mg only. A<br />

complete assessment of the system requires additional experimental <strong>da</strong>ta.<br />

2.5 The Cu-Mg-Y system<br />

For the thermodynamic assessment of the system use has been made of<br />

available thermodynamic evaluations of the binary sub­systems.<br />

The basis of the evaluation is provided by the thermodynamic measurements<br />

carried out by [97Gan]. Figures 14 and 15 show the calculated partial<br />

enthalpies of Y in the liquid phase compared with the experimental <strong>da</strong>ta.<br />

2.6 The Cu-Mg-Ni system<br />

In the system Cu­Mg­Ni experimental information concerning the solid phases<br />

is lacking. Therefore the evaluation of the system is restricted to the temperature<br />

and concentration range for which experimental <strong>da</strong>ta are available.<br />

The activity <strong>da</strong>ta of Mg in the liquid phase as reported in [93Cmal] and<br />

[93Gna2] for several isopleths are reproduced well. In Fig. 16 the experimental<br />

activity <strong>da</strong>ta are plotted together with the result of the calculation for the<br />
