Heat of Fusion for Steel

[baglamas]

I can't find anywhere heat of fusion for any grade of steel. I'm interested in low and high carbon steels but any other grade would also be helpful.

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me where I could look up this information. Thanks

has some but for cast iron (more range than I'd have expected). A couple of other links that did list steel didn't include a value. I'll check in my CRC reference book tonight.

My CRC book "Handbook of tables for Applied Engineering Science" gives the heat of fusion for iron as 65 cal/gm.

Sorry, that's not really what you were looking for but it's all I have.

This exam document has a problem #3 listing heat of fusion as 237 kJ/kg:
