The latent heat of fusion of some metals

Thermodynamic properties of tin: Part I Experimental investigation, ab-initio modelling of α-, β-phase and a thermodynamic description for pure metal in solid and liquid state from 0 K

“…The model we obtained allowed us to have a reasonable description for Cp down to 20 K (Figure13ac). A comparison of the calculated values and results of enthalpy drop measurements showed reasonable agreement with the existing data of Awbery and Griffiths [44], Umino [45] and Genot [46] (Figure 14a-c).…”

“…A comparison of the data from Iitaka [43], Awbery and Griffiths [44] and Umino [45] showed that these results are in reasonable agreement (Figure 6). The only high temperature measurements were carried out by Feber et al [51] These results seem to be in agreement with lower temperature data.…”

“…The value was determined as the amount of energy required to warm 1 gram of water from 14.5 to 15. and Bottema [42], Figure 4a, and they provide more reliable data, although both set of measurements are in reasonable agreement. Iitaka [43], Awbery and Griffiths [44] and Umino [45] carried out measurements of H o (T)-H o (293). From this set of measurements the data from Awbery and Griffiths [44] and Umino [45] are in a good agreement with each other, while data from Iitaka differ significantly [43], Figure 4b.…”

“…Iitaka [43], Awbery and Griffiths [44] and Umino [45] carried out measurements of H o (T)-H o (293). From this set of measurements the data from Awbery and Griffiths [44] and Umino [45] are in a good agreement with each other, while data from Iitaka differ significantly [43], Figure 4b. The most recent measurements were carried by Genot [46], however the actual temperature of the calorimeter was specified in the paper as 471K (198 0 C), which makes it impossible to compare with experimental measurements from other authors.…”
