(physics) A substance, such as liquid helium, that exhibits superfluidity.
superfluid (not comparable)
Of, pertaining to, or exhibiting superfluidity.
Application of heat to a spot in superfluid helium results in a flow of the normal component which takes care of the heat transport at relatively high velocity (up to 20 cm/s) which leads to a very high effective thermal conductivity. Source: Internet
As long as it remains superfluid, it creeps up the wall of the cup as a thin film. Source: Internet
Bose–Einstein condensation remains, however, fundamental to the superfluid properties of helium-4. Source: Internet
At the end sections a normal to superfluid conversion takes place and vice versa. Source: Internet
Below 1 K the helium is almost completely superfluid. Source: Internet
Eq.(7) shows that the superfluid component is accelerated by gradients in the pressure and in the gravitational field, as usual, but also by a gradient in the fountain pressure. Source: Internet
