Abstract
Phase transitions of lattice models of ionic crystals are studied by comput er simulation. The nature of order-disorder transitions on different crysta l structures is established and compared with the behavior of related Ising models. It is found that for both, continuous and first order transitions the basic features seem to be similar to those of Ising systems.
