In the thermo-calc diffusion simulation problem, I am trying to simulate the Al6xxx alloy diffusion(DICTRA) module and add oxygen to the chemical composition, but I am unable to add the oxygen with their aluminum package. How can I add oxygen and set up the diffusion problem for the Al6xxx alloy?
In Thermo-Calc's DICTRA module, the difficulty you're facing when adding oxygen to the chemical composition of the Al6xxx alloy stems from the fact that oxygen is not typically included in the standard databases for metals and alloys. Most diffusion simulations in Thermo-Calc using the DICTRA module are performed with elements that are typically part of metallurgical alloy systems, while oxygen is often handled in a separate database or as part of specific oxides, rather than a direct alloying element.
