Table 1 Approximate thermodynamic constants used to calculate the nondimensional parameters (16) including references, except for 
and ρs,ℓ which are well known. The constant ω has been calculated with equations (1)– (3), except when values for 
and 
could not be found. The column ωG reproduces the values of Guisbiers et al.10 for an alternative model to equation (2)
and ρs,ℓ which are well known. The constant ω has been calculated with
