We have performed molecular-dynamics calculations of the heat capacities CP and CV, and the thermal expansion and compressibility of liquid copper up to about 3300 K, using an interaction based on an embedded-atom approach. Our calculations confirm the experimental result for some other liquid metals, that CP is essentially independent of the temperature, while CV decreases with temperature and extrapolates to approximately 2kB/atom well above the melting temperature. {} 1996 The American Physical Society.
