A Relaxation Model for Liquid-vapor Phase Change with Metastability
We propose a model that describes phase transition including metastable states present in the van der Waals Equation of State. From a convex optimization problem on the Helmoltz free energy of a mixture, we deduce a dynamical system that is able to depict the mass transfer between two phases, for which equilibrium states are either metastable states, stable states or a coexistent state. The dyn...
متن کاملLimit of metastability for liquid and vapor phases of water.
We report the limits of superheating of water and supercooling of vapor from Monte Carlo simulations using microscopic models with configurational enthalpy as the order parameter. The superheating limit is well reproduced. The vapor is predicted to undergo spinodal decomposition at a temperature of Tspvap=46±10 °C (0 °C≪Tspvap≪100 °C) under 1 atm. The water-water network begins to form at the s...
متن کاملA Kinetic Model for Vapor-liquid Flows
The evaporation of a liquid slab into vacuum is studied by numerical solutions of the Enskog-Vlasov equation for a fluid of spherical molecules interacting by Sutherland potential. The main aim of this work is to obtain the structure of the vapor-liquid interface in non-equilibrium conditions as well as the distribution function of evaporating molecules. The results show that the distribution f...
متن کاملLiquid Vapor Phase Transitions for Systems with Finite-Range Interactions
An outstanding problem in equilibrium statistical mechanics is to derive rigorously the existence of a liquid vapor phase transition in a continuum particle system. While such transitions are observed in all types of macroscopic systems there is at present no proof from first principles of their existence in particles interacting with any kind of reasonable potential, say Lennard Jones or hard ...
متن کاملNonlinear dynamics of confined thin liquid-vapor bilayer systems with phase change
We numerically investigate the nonlinear evolution of the interface of a thin liquid-vapor bilayer system confined by rigid horizontal walls from both below and above. The lateral variation of the vapor pressure arising from phase change is taken into account in the present analysis. When the liquid vapor is heated cooled and gravity acts toward the liquid, the deflection of the interface monot...
