Gas-Phase Mass-Transfer Coefficient for
Crucible Geometry
Many experimental investigations of the rate of crn/s

chemical reactions involving liquid metals use an
experimental arrangement similar to the one employed

in part of the present study; that is, liquid metal in a
crucible supported in a vertical tube furnace with the
reacting or neutral gas flowing in the reaction tube.
Since in many cases gas-phase mass transfer may be
affecting the rate of the reaction, the gas-phase mass
transfer for this experimental geometry was investi-
gated. In a previous measurement of the rate of oxi-
