Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to calculate the melting points of perfect crystalline aluminum to high pressures. Under ambientpressure, there exhibits about 20% superheating before melting compared to the experimental melting point. Under high pressures, thecalculated melting temperature increases with the pressure but at a decreasing rate, which agrees well with the Simon's melting equation. Porosity effect was also studied for aluminum crystals with various initial porosity at ambient pressure, which shows that the equilibrium melting point decreases with the initial porosity as experiments expect.

Methods for determining volume changes on melting have been briefly reviewed. A new apparatus has been described which is simple in operation, accurate in measurements and is free from some of the major limitations of the apparatuses used earlier. It has been used to determine volume changes on melting of α- and β-derivatives of naphthalene (C10H7X; X = NH2, OH, COOH), as well as coefficients of cubical expansion of the solid compounds (α) and their melts (α'). The application of the apparatus has been extended to determine the densities of the compounds at any temperature both when entrapped air is present (d) and when it is completely absent (d'). An electrical method using a modified glass calorimeter has been employed for the measurement of latent heats of fusion, ΔHf. From the experimentally determined values of ΔVf/Vs,d', α and ΔHf, the molar volume of the solid compound at the melting point (V8), that of the melt at the melting point (V1), the entropy of fusion (ΔSf), the variation of the melting temperature with pressure [(∂T/∂P)v] and the compressibility coefficient of the solid compounds (β) have been calculated and the results discussed.
