Surface tension of pure liquid and supercooled iron

Effect of dissolved oxygen on the surface tension of liquid iron

“…This "oscillating drop method" has been described in detail elsewhere (5). The results obtained by this technique on surface tension of pure liquid iron (5,6) were substantially higher than those reported in the literature (2,3).…”

A new variant for measuring the surface tension of liquid metals and alloys by the oscillating drop method

“…Therefore, surface tension values given in the literature scatter widely, especially for high-melting metals. To overcome these problems, the electromagnetic levitation technique for determining the surface tension of molten metals was first introduced by Lu and co-workers [8][9][10]. The principle of the electromagnetic oscillation droplet technique is based on the general theory Paper presented at the Fourth International Workshop on Subsecond Thermophysics, June 27-29, 1995, K61n, Germany.…”
