Atomic Packing Factor calculator

Atomic packing factor (APF), packing efficiency, or packing fraction is the fraction of volume in a crystal structure that is occupied by constituent particles. It is a dimensionless quantity and always less than unity. In atomic systems, by convention, the APF is determined by assuming that atoms are rigid spheres. The radius of the spheres is taken to be the maximum value such that the atoms do not overlap. For one-component crystals (those that contain only one type of particle),

How to Calculate Atomic Packing Factor?

Atomic Packing Factor calculator uses Atomic Packing Factor=Volume of Atoms in Unit Cell/Volume of Unit Cell to calculate the Atomic Packing Factor, The Atomic Packing factor formula is defined as ratio of volume of an atom inits unit cell to the volume of total unit cell, where volume of atom is 4*pi*a^3. Atomic Packing Factor and is denoted by APF symbol.

How to calculate Atomic Packing Factor using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Atomic Packing Factor, enter Volume of Atoms in Unit Cell (VOA) and Volume of Unit Cell (VUC) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Atomic Packing Factor calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1 = 1/1.

FAQ

What is Atomic Packing Factor?

The Atomic Packing factor formula is defined as ratio of volume of an atom inits unit cell to the volume of total unit cell, where volume of atom is 4*pi*a^3 and is represented as APF=VOA/VUC or Atomic Packing Factor=Volume of Atoms in Unit Cell/Volume of Unit Cell. Volume of Atoms in Unit Cell is the total volume of atoms present in the unit cell and Volume of Unit Cell is equal to the cubed cell-edge length (a). .

How to calculate Atomic Packing Factor?
