Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics calculation of the transport properties of carbon dioxide

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity and diffusion coefficient of supercritical carbon dioxide along the 313 K isotherm using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics were computed. And two intermolecular potential models for carbon dioxide were compared with experiment at four densities corresponding to pressures of 30, 70, 200 and 500 bar.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Surface Morphology on the Shear-Induced Wear of Alkylsilane Monolayers: Molecular Dynamics Study.

TL;DR: The presence of surface roughness is found to reduce film stability, with localization of wear observed for chain attachment sites nearest the interface of contact, and the influence of substrate nonideality on monolayer degradation is shown to diminish as chain length is increased.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of n‑Alkane Adsorption on Activated Carbon Using the SAFT−FMT−DFT Approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the SAFT-FMT-DFT approach is used to calculate single pore isotherms to develop a pore size distribution for BPL activated carbon, described by the 10-4-3 fluid-wall potential, based on nitrogen adsorption at 77 K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the SSC/LHNC, SSCF and PY approximations for short ranged, anisotropic potentials

TL;DR: In this paper, the orientational correlation function of molecular fluids was evaluated in the dense liquid state for a fluid interacting with short-range anisotropic interactions, and the results showed that SSC/LHNC is very poor, failing to predict many of the structural features present in the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation results.
