Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Potassium chloride mass fraction in ash = 3.2
- Chlorine mass fraction in ash = 2.1
- Silicon dioxide mass fraction in ash = 52.7
Expected Result:
- Corrosion risk index = 0.12749003984064
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Corrosion risk index = 0.12749003984064 dimensionless.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
corrosion risk index = (potassium chloride mass fraction in ash * chlorine mass fraction in ash) / (silicon dioxide mass fraction in ash + 0.01)Corrosion risk index.
