Abstract

The heat transport properties of liquid sodium in turbulent flow through circular copper and nickel tubing have been investigated and an empirical formula determined. The thermal resistances at the interfaces between liquid sodium and solid copper, nickel and stainless steel were also investigated. Methods of measurement of the viscosity, thermal diffusivity and the density of liquid metals are described. Data on these properties of the liquid alkali metals (sodium, potassium, lithium, NaK eutectic alloy) are given throughout a wide temperature range.
