Abstract:
In this work the dynamic viscosity of liquid metal alloys of eutectic composition is investigated. In particular a semi-empirical equation, previously proposed for some pure metals, is now tested to estimate the viscosity of liquid metal alloys. Analysis is limited by three materials that have been evaluated by a recent careful analysis by Assael and co-workers: $\mathrm{Al}$–$\mathrm{Si}$, $\mathrm{Pb}$–$\mathrm{Bi}$, and $\mathrm{Pb}$–$\mathrm{Sn}$ of eutectic composition. The equation proposed shows a satisfactory agreement with the accredited data available in literature.
