- Description
- In this paper, we consider lattice-based diffusion kinetics for the direct exchange and ring mechanisms as possible proxy diffusion mechanisms for diffusion in liquid alloys. For these mechanisms, we assessed the Manning factor that arises from the Darken–Manning relation relating the interdiffusion coefficient and tracer diffusion coefficients and which can be obtained experimentally. The maximum values of the Manning factor for these two mechanisms occur when the exchange only takes place between the atoms of different type but not between the atoms of the same type. These values have strong composition dependence and reach a value of 2 (ignoring tracer correlation factors) for the direct exchange mechanism at equal compositions of the two components in binary alloys. But for the three atom ring mechanism, these values as a function of composition have a much more complicated form that sits below the direct exchange mechanism for compositions between 10 and 90%. When all exchanges (allowed by a mechanism) occur with approximately the same probability, then the Manning factor is about unity for all compositions.
