Ternary interdiffusion coefficients were determined at 1000/sup 0/C at several Fe-Ni-Al alloy compositions with multiphase ..beta..(bcc) vs ..gamma..(fcc) diffusion couples which developed planar ..beta../..gamma..-interfaces. The coefficients, D tilde/sub ij//sup Fe/ (i,j = Al or Ni) were calculated at compositions corresponding to points of intersections of diffusion paths with Fe taken as the dependent component. These coefficients varied with composition by 1 to 2 orders of magnitude in the ..beta..-phase but relatively little in the ..gamma..-phase. Empirical relations were derived to describe the composition dependence of the main coefficients. D tilde/sub AlAl//sup Fe/ and D tilde/sub NiNi//sup Fe/. Interdiffusion coefficients with either Al or Ni as the dependent component were also evaluated. The relative diffusivities of the elements increase in the order, Fe, Ni, Al for both ..beta..- and ..gamma..-alloys. The ternary diffusion data were consistent with binary interdiffusion coefficients for Fe-Al and Fe-Ni alloys.
