Abstract
Two facilities for the complete noninvasive measurement of the electrical resistivity of liquid metals above the melting temperature and in the undercooled liquid state below the melting temperature are presented: a ground-based facility that was built up in our laboratory and the microgravity facility TEMPUS. Both facilities are unique in combining the containerless positioning method of electromagnetic levitation with the contactless, inductive resistivity measurement technique, thereby enabling for the first time measurements in the undercooled liquid state of a metal. The principles and technical realizations of the levitation and measurement technique of both facilities are presented. Furthermore, experimental resistivity data for Cu60Ni40 as well as Co80Pd20 alloy are presented which indicate atomic ordering effects in the undercooled melt.
