Containerless Property Measurements of Liquid Palladium

Abstract

Some thermophysical properties of liquid and supercooled palladium were measured using containerless techniques. Over the 1640–1875 K temperature interval, the density could be expressed as ρ(T)=10.66× 10³ −0.77(T−T_m)(kg·m⁻³) and the ratio between the isobaric heat capacity and the hemispherical total emissivity could be rendered as (J·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹), where T _m =1828 K. The volume expansion coefficient was also determined as 7.2 × 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹.
