Summary
The fact that material transport does occur under conditions of finite temperature difference in a flowing molten metal system was established. The rate mass transfer was thought to be either diffusion limited or solution rate limited. It is believed that the mass transfer of structural materials in Na or NaK systems is solution rate limited. The limiting process has not been qualitatively or quantitatively confirmed for the Inconel-Na or Inconel-NaK system. Increasing the maximum system wall temperature increases the amount of mass transfer, at least above 1300 deg F. The effect of the total temperature difference across the system on the amount of mass transfer was determined. (W.L.H.)
