Abstract :
Molecular dynamics models of binary CaO–FeO, MgO–SiO2, FeO–SiO2, CaO–SiO2 and ternary CaO–FeO–SiO2 systems were constructed at 1873 K using the Born–Mayer pair potentials. The potentials included the effective dipole–dipole interactions for Ca–Fe, Mg–Si, Fe–Si and Ca–Si pairs. Parameters of the dipole–dipole interactions were found by adjusting calculated Gibbs free energies of formation of binary CaO–FeO, FeO–SiO2, MgO–SiO2 and CaO–SiO2 systems to experimental data.
