I have been running into issues with Domino while trying to generate files for pseudosections. I am on Windows 10 and using the most recent installation of Theriak-Domino.
I have been using the HP98 database to generate pseudosections of some blueschists from the lab (therin file with compositions listed below), but Domino frequently fails to save a Domplt.txt file for use in Guzzler. I am covering a pressure span of 10-20 kbar for the blueschist, but the DomOut.txt file shows that Domino often shuts down prematurely at around 17 kbar, sometimes listing a "too many loops" error but more often just stopping abruptly with no error listed. Even when lowering the pressure axis (12-15 kbar, for example) to reduce the number of calculations, Domino still frequently closes down before finishing the calculations or producing a Domplt file. I am unsure of how to proceed, and any insight into what is causing these crashes and how to fix them would be greatly appreciated.
Therin file:
Code: Select all
! -----Version: 05.09.06
! Comments in this file start with ! at position 1.
!
! The sructure of input data includes two parts: (a) External conditions for calculation (e.g. T and P) and
! (b) Bulk system composition given as element amounts.
! The first significant line should contain the external conditions as follows.
!
! temperature(deg C) pressure(bar) optionally-[PGAS]-ratio
! where
! [PGAS]-ratio = (fluid pressure)/(total pressure)
!
! The second and further significant lines contain the bulk composition have the following form.
!
! print-code bulk-formula use-code optional_comment
!
! where
! print-code should start at position 1 and may take the following values.
! < -1: print information about selected or rejected phases from the database.
! NO EQUILIBRIUM CALCULATED.
! =-1: print composition, considered phases and solution models.
! NO EQUILIBRIUM CALCULATED.
! = 0: short output (stable assemblage)
! = 1: long output (composition, considered phases, solution models, stable
! assemblage, activities of all phases
!
! bulk-formula is the element bulk composition written as follows.
! ELEMENT1(Amount1)ELEMENT2(Amount2).....
! A ? for the oxygen amount instructs the program to assign exactly
! the stoiciometric oxygene atoms to the other elements.
!
! use-code controlls which phases are read from the database. Usually this is "*"
! for all phases matching the chemical system defined by bulk-formula.
!
! optional comment
!
! ----------> dont' forget: at least two blanks between items!!! <----------
!
! For the most typical case, only one chemical input line is needed. The following lines are
! ignored. For calculation of binary or ternary diagrams however, two or three additionalchemical
! input lines are needed that define the the system«s endmember compositions.
