Recent R-matrix calculations of electron impact excitation rates for Ca XV have been used to obtain theoretical density-sensitive emission line ratios which are applicable to solar flares. Results for electron densities derived from the I(208.71 A)/I(200.95 A), I(181.90 A)/I(200.95 A), and I(215.37 A)/I(200.95 A) values for solar flares obtained by the Skylab NRL S082A slitless spectrograph are in excellant agreement. Ca XV electron densities are found to compare favorably with those determined from the line ratios of ions formed at similar electron temperatures. The results provide support for the accuracy of the adopted atomic data and for the line ratio calculation method.
