Abstract

A four-probe dc technique for measuring liquid-metal electrical resistivities has been developed, and liquid-resistivity measurements on gallium, tin, lead, copper, a lead tin alloy, a copper tin alloy and a zinc tin alloy have been presented. The Lorentz relation has been used to calculate thermal conductivities from these resistivity measurements. The thermal conductivities calculated from these resistivity measurements are (where data are available) in good agreement with recommended liquid-metal thermal conductivities.
