DICTRA is a software for accurate simulations of diffusion in multicomponent alloy systems. Many different processes can be simulated, for example:
- Homogenization of alloys.
- Carburizing and decarburizing of steels.
- Microsegregation during solidification.
- Carbide dissolution during austenitization of steels.
- Coarsening of precipitates.
DICTRA is coupled with Thermo-Calc for necessary thermodynamic calculations. The DICTRA software has been applied to numerous problems of practical and scientific interest. The simulations with DICTRA require databases for:
- Thermodynamic (used in Thermo-Calc)
- Kinetic data (used in DICTRA).
There are databases available for different materials and applications. Thermo-Calc Software offer training courses where you learn to use the DICTRA software in a few days. The DICTRA training course is held in combination with the Thermo-Calc Training courses. When purchasing DICTRA comes with a period of free maintenanence & support subscription. After the free maintenance & support subscription of 12 months for a new license, it is recommended that you continue the subscription as this will give you access to automatic updates of the software and technical support. |
