Abstract

Helium, unlike any other substance, has two known liquid phases, The phase which occurs at higher temperatures (saturation temperatures from approximately 2,17° to 5.2°K) behaves in a similar manner to other liquids and is referred to as helium I. The low-temperature phase, helium II, has saturation temperatures below approximately 2.17°K. Helium. II has many properties which make it. unlike any other known fluid. These unusual properties have resulted in its being referred to at various times as “superfluid” and “quantum fluid.” In this paper the term superfluid is used to refer to He II, while other fluids including helium I are referred to as classical or ordinary fluids.
