Time Dependent Effects in Surface Tension Measurements of an Industrial Fe‐alloy

Abstract: The surface tension of an industrial FeC-alloy containing Si, Mn and S in the few atomic per cent range was measured by the oscillating drop method in ground based electromagnetic levitation and under reduced gravity conditions on board a parabolic flight. The results from the parabolic flight exhibited a large variation between different heating cycles and a discrepancy with the ground based experiments with regard to the value of the surface tension at the liquidus temperature and the temperature coefficient… Show more

“…Due to the lower surface tension of Si as compared to that of Fe, Cr, and Mo, Si can be considered as surface active element. The model of Egry 33 for an Fe‐0.40at%Si alloy gives 34 σ ( T liq ) = 1.80 Nm −1 which is close to the value measured in the ground based experiment. Thus, the initial Si content of the alloy of 0.5 at% can not account for the reduced surface tension observed in the parabolic flight experiment.…”

“…8. A negative slope of the surface tension versus temperature is found by Wunderlich et al [39] in Fe-C binary with a negligible amount of surface active elements (sulfur). The difference of the data of the present work to the literature for all three independent methods cannot be interpreted in terms of variation in the chemical composition.…”

“…To develop and improve existing casting models, thermophysical property data needs to be collected. In several parabolic flight campaigns, the surface tension, viscosity, and density of a variety of steel grades were investigated, [49,62,63] together with groundbased measurements for thermophysical properties in the solid-state. [63] Stainless steels based on the Fe-Cr-Ni alloy system are common materials; however, these alloys are very interesting for the study of competing nucleation kinetics of different phases.…”
