Key step of exploiting a new type BMG (Bulk Metallic Glass) is quickly judging GFA (Glass Forming Ability) of the alloys. The mole melting heats of BMGs are calculated using the weighted averages principle. The reliability and limitation of Trg criterion for GFA are discussed. The reason why Trg of BMGs is larger than 0.5 is discussed. Two new criteria for GFA, ΔHmg and ΔGg, are proposed. GFA sequence of BMGs is calculated using the ΔHmg criterion, the result agrees with that of A. Inoue and the Rc criterion. Furthermore, as an example, the Rc of the alloys developed by Chuang DONG et al is calculated using the ΔHmg and ΔGg. The ascending sequence of these alloys calculated with the ΔHmg criterion agrees with that of Chuang DONG et al. On the contrary, the result by the ΔGg criterion is in contrary with Chuang DONG et al, indicating that the ΔHmg criterion is better and more convenient than the ΔGg criterion. Calculation showed that the optimum ΔHmg is -15.16 kJ/mol.
