Heat of Fusion of Solid Parahydrogen

Abstract: The heat of fusion of solid parahydrogen has been measured for the first time at pressures above that of the triple point. The measurements were carried out up to a pressure of 338 atm. The heat of fusion was found to be a linear function of the pressure, and its values are well reproduced by the equation ΔHf = 0.04415 P+28.04, in which ΔHf is the heat of fusion in calories per gram mole and P the pressure in atmospheres. The value given by this equation for the triple point of hydrogen is 28.04, which compare… Show more

“…Additional references on parahydrogen are given in the monograph [6]. Useful with the Clapeyron equation are recent determinations of heats of fusion [7] and of densities of solid parahydrogen [8]. The words: coexisting; at coexistence; orthobaric; at saturation; and saturated vapor, liquid or solid, all refer to one or more of at least two phases in equilibrium.…”

“…Direct current electrical power was supplied to the copper top of the cell from two 12-volt storage batteries. The power was accurately measured with the help of calibrated resistors in a previously used (1) power-measuring circuit. The wires for the heater and for the thermometer were led through the top of the can and outside of the cryostat through stainless steel tubes.…”
