Journal ArticleDOI
Mass diffusivity and thermal conductivity estimation of chloride-based salt hydrates for thermo-chemical heat storage : a molecular dynamics study using the reactive force field.
Amar Deep Pathak,Koen Heijmans,SV Silvia Nedea,Adri C. T. van Duin,HA Herbert Zondag,Camilo C.M. Rindt,David Smeulders +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a transferable force field for MgCl2 and CaCl2 is proposed and used to investigate the heat and mass transport for the salt hydrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a reactive force field for CaCl2·nH2O, and the application to thermochemical energy storage
Koen Heijmans,Sophie Nab,Bern Klein Holkenborg,Amar Deep Pathak,Silvia V. Gaastra-Nedea,David Smeulders +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a ReaxFF force field was developed to describe stable CaCl 2 · n H 2 O structures, accurate descriptions of crystal surface energies, and multiple material indicators like charges, reaction enthalpies, and radial distribution functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gibbs Ensemble Monte Carlo for Reactive Force Fields to Determine the Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium of CO2and H2O
TL;DR: In this article, a Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo (GEMC-ReaxFF) approach was used to predict the VLE of CO2 and H2O, which is capable of not only modeling bond breaking and formation in reactive environments but also predicting their VLEs at saturation conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of recent developments in molecular dynamics simulations of the photoelectrochemical water splitting process
Nicolae Goga,Leonhard Mayrhofer,Ionut Tranca,SV Silvia Nedea,Koen Heijmans,Veerapandian Ponnuchamy,Andrei Vasilateanu +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a short overview of the molecular dynamics (MD) method and how it can be used to model the water splitting process in photoelectrochemical hydrogen production is provided. And the current state-of-the-art where further developments will be needed for better utilization of MD techniques in the field of water splitting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal Boundary Characteristics of Homo-/Heterogeneous Interfaces
Koen Heijmans,Amar Deep Pathak,Pablo Solano-López,Domenico Giordano,SV Silvia Nedea,David Smeulders +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal boundary resistance (TBR) of two solids in contact is measured using Reactive force field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF MD) and a phenomenological theory (PT), predicting the temperature discontinuity at the interface.
