Viscosity of CMSX-10 Superalloy

The viscosity thermophysical property data is included with TCS Ni-based Superalloys Database (TCNI) starting with version 10 (TCNI10).

Wunderlich [2017Wun] measured the viscosity of CMSX-10 superalloy by the oscillating drop method in a container-less electromagnetic processing device on board a parabolic flight airplane. Mohr [2020Moh] performed their measurements in the electromagnetic levitator on board the International Space Station. The comparison between these two measurements and our description is shown.
