Refinement of the Thermophysical Properties of Liquid Tin at High Temperatures

Аннотация

The temperature dependence of the enthalpy increment of tin in the temperature range 800–1475 K is studied because of the fact that the reference data on the thermophysical properties of liquid tin at high temperatures are conflicting and ambiguous. The measurements were carried out by drop calorimetry in an argon atmosphere using a high-temperature SETARAM MHTC calorimeter. The experimental results are compared with the well-known reported values to choose the most reliable source of reference data.
