We conducted reversed deliquescence experiments in saturated NaCl–NaNO3–H2O, KNO3 – NaNO3–H2O, and NaCl–KNO3–H2O systems from 90 to 120 °C as a function of relative humidity and solution composition. NaCl, NaNO3, and KNO3 represent members of dust salt assemblages that are likely to deliquesce and form concentrated brines on high-level radioactive waste package surfaces in a repository environment at Yucca Mountain, NV. Discrepancy between model prediction and experiment can be as high as 8 % for relative humidity and 50 % for dissolved ion concentration. The discrepancy is attributed primarily to the use of 25 °C models for Cl–NO3 and K–NO3 ion interactions in the current Yucca Mountain Project high-temperature Pitzer model to describe the nonideal behavior of these highly concentrated solutions. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
