Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

A grid model of the surface liquid layer at the boundary with the gas and its rheological and thermophysical properties (temperature dependence of the surface tension and surface heat capacity) have been described. It has been obtained that the mole heat capacity of the surface layer is nearly the same (5.6 J/(mole·K)) for many liquid metals. It has been shown that for calculation of the rheological properties it is expedient to use the Kelvin model.
