Abstract
Atomic order effects in binary and ternary liquid alloys have been studied on the basis of statistical mechanics and fluctuation theory. A solute order parameter is defined and calculated for dilute liquid ternary alloys. A general thermodynamic relation characterizing the attractive or repulsive effects between different solutes is established. A classification of the metal-non-metal interaction in liquid iron and copper is proposed and discussed.
