Viscosity measurement of liquid ternary Cu–Ni–Fe alloys by an oscillating cup viscometer and comparison with models

  • Jürgen Brillo , Rob Brooks , Ivan Egry and Peter Quested

Abstract

Viscosity data on Cu – Ni – Fe have been obtained using an oscillating cup viscometer. In this method, a liquid sample is suspended in a crucible which performs damped angular oscillations. Viscosities are calculated from the time period and the decay of the amplitude.

The temperature dependence of the measured viscosities can be described by an exponential Arrhenius law, taking into account an activation energy for the viscous flow. The activation energies for the ternary alloys were found to be linear combinations of the corresponding activation energies of the pure elements Cu, Ni, and Fe. At constant temperature, a non ideal mixing behaviour was observed and the data were compared with several quantitative models. Close agreement of the experimental results was found with the predictions of two models by Kaptay and Hirai.
