Fig. 10: Sensitivity analysis of uncertainty in TiZrNi thermophysical properties.

From: MHD surrogate model for convection in electromagnetically levitated molten metal droplets processed using the ISS-EML facility

Fig. 10

Bold solid line indicates best data available. Gray envelope marks maximum and minimum values of umax based on the uncertainty in viscosity and electrical conductivity. Only the \(U_{{\mathrm{ctr}}}^{\mathrm{H}}\) = 5 V line is shown to preserve clarity. Uncertainty envelope shrinks with decreasing heater voltage. Dotted: VFT fit for µ, σ + 20%. Dashed: Arrhenius fit for µ, σ + 20%. Dash-dot: VFT fit for µ, σ −20%. Solid thin: Arrhenius fit for µ, σ − 20%.
