Determining the density of molten Y2O3 using an electrostatic levitation furnace in the International Space Station
This work employed the electrostatic levitation furnace (ELF) apparatus installed in the KIBO Japanese Experiment Module on the International Space Station. The ELF is able to levitate high-melting-point materials such as ceramics without containers. The heating and melting of refractory oxides in this apparatus allows the analysis of various thermophysical properties, including density, surface tension and viscosity, that are otherwise very difficult to measure in terrestrial laboratories. In the present study, the density of molten Y2O3 was determined over a wide temperature range using the ELF. A density of 4700 kg/m3 was obtained at 2712 K, in good agreement with the value previously obtained using an aero-acoustic levitator. The relationship between the ionic radius and the molar volume of liquid Y2O3 was ascertained and found to be similar to those for other non-glass-forming sesquioxides.
期刊介绍:
High Temperatures – High Pressures (HTHP) is an international journal publishing original peer-reviewed papers devoted to experimental and theoretical studies on thermophysical properties of matter, as well as experimental and modelling solutions for applications where control of thermophysical properties is critical, e.g. additive manufacturing. These studies deal with thermodynamic, thermal, and mechanical behaviour of materials, including transport and radiative properties. The journal provides a platform for disseminating knowledge of thermophysical properties, their measurement, their applications, equipment and techniques. HTHP covers the thermophysical properties of gases, liquids, and solids at all temperatures and under all physical conditions, with special emphasis on matter and applications under extreme conditions, e.g. high temperatures and high pressures. Additionally, HTHP publishes authoritative reviews of advances in thermophysics research, critical compilations of existing data, new technology, and industrial applications, plus book reviews.
