But there are also enormous quantities of liquid metal in the Earth&#8217;s core, where temperatures are so high that part of the iron is molten and undergoes complex flows. A team has now simulated a similar process in the laboratory and made a surprising discovery: Under certain circumstances, the flow of liquid metal is far more turbulent than expected &#8212; and this has a significant impact on heat transport.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2022\/05\/220520101355.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Earth&#8217;s core: Unexpected flow behavior in liquid metals<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ScienceDaily&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some metals are in liquid form, the prime example being mercury.
