This paper presents results of nleasurements of specific heat and electric~,l resistivity of niobium from ambient temperature to the experimental limit of the equipment which is close to 2500 K. The study used a contact thermometry variant of the millisecond resolution pulse calorimetry developed at the Institute of Nuclear Sciences VINCA. In the cxpcrimcnts exceeding 1000 K, thermocouple thermometry was st, ppicmented with parallel pyrometric temperature measurements. This, together with application of tungsten/rhenium thermocouple thermometry, increased the temperature range of measurements to 2500 K. In the range where two thermometries overlap, data on the specimen emittance were also generated. Novelties in the method, the results on electrical resistivity, specific heat, hemispherical total emittance and normal spectral emittahoe of niobium, and accuracies attained in different property measurements arc discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
