Reading the Isobars File
Results are output to file "SolEx_isobars.txt" on the user's desktop. This file is tab-delimited and can be imported into third-party spreadsheet applications for further calculations.
The top part of the file displays the temperature and melt composition used for the calculations.
Below this, results are given for pressures of 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 bars.
Creating an Isobars plot:
- H2O gives water concentrations (in wt%) of dissolved in the melt. Use this to plot the x axis.
- The remaining columns give carbon dioxide concentrations dissolved in the melt at the corresponding pressures.
- Use the CO2 columns as multiple series to plot against H2O.
- The plots are valid for all initial H2O and CO2 contents.
