I know the properties like density,specific heat, latent heat, viscosity and thermal conductivity of NaNO3, KNO3 and Ca(NO3)2. I am using a ternary mixture with a new composition which doesn't have property details available in literature. Is there any technique or method to calculate the mixture's properties?
Ternary eutectic (LiNO3-NaNO3-KNO3) salt mixture was experimentally verified to be a candidate and compared with theoretica results obtained by atomic/ moleculer modeling using algorithem of Newton-Rapson method. Excess Gibbs energy in the TES system
was calculated

Details of thermodynamic modeling was given in following reference for various combination of salts. The results were compared wtih data of expermental results.

I believe that you can find answer in the paper "Evaluating physical properties of molten salt reactor fluoride mixtures" (J FLUORINE CHEM. 01/2009; 130(1):30-37).
