Title: How to set D for select elements
Post by: Yujian Wang on December 06, 2022, 05:30:15 AM
Hello,

I am using alphaMELTS 1.9 to model variations of major and trace element during melt-rock interaction. I want to sent my own partition coefficients for selected elements between cpx and melt. I unset the ALPHAMELTS_TRACE_DEFAULT_DPTX and changed the values in "default_trace_data.dat". Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to work that way. AlphaMELTS executable seems still keeping the default values. Should I have to make a new trace_data file? But How can I read these in?

Hi,

It sounds like you need to set ALPHAMELTS_TRACE_INPUT_FILE to "default_trace_data.dat" so it reads in the file instead of using the built-in values.
