A study on the thermal resistance over solid-liquid-vapor interfaces in a finite-space by a molecular dynamics method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Molecular dynamics of argon atoms in a nano-triangular channel which consists of (111) platinum walls were studied. The molecular dynamics simulations aim to gain understanding in the heat transfer through the channel including the influence of the contact resistances which become important in small-scale systems. The heat transfer properties of the finite-space system were measured at a quasi-steady non-equilibrium * Manuscript

On the early and developed stages of surface condensation: competition mechanism between interfacial and condensate bulk thermal resistances
We use molecular dynamics simulation to investigate the early and developed stages of surface condensation. We find that the liquid-vapor and solid-liquid interfacial thermal resistances depend on the properties of solid and fluid, which are time-independent, while the condensate bulk thermal resistance depends on the condensate thickness, which is time-dependent. There exists intrinsic competi...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulation of Lubricant Adsorption and Thermal Depletion Instability
In this work, we incorporated a quartic bond potential into a coarse-grained bead-spring model to study lubricant adsorption on a solid surface as well as depletion instability. The surface tension density and the number density profiles were examined to verify the solid-liquid and liquid-vapor interfaces during heat treatment. It was found that both the liquid-vapor interfacial thickness and t...
متن کاملThermal resistance of nanoscopic liquid-liquid interfaces: dependence on chemistry and molecular architecture.
Systems with nanoscopic features contain a high density of interfaces. Thermal transport in such systems can be governed by the resistance to heat transfer, the Kapitza resistance (RK), at the interface. Although soft interfaces, such as those between immiscible liquids or between a biomolecule and solvent, are ubiquitous, few studies of thermal transport at such interfaces have been reported. ...
متن کاملThermal Simulation of Solidification Process in Continuous Casting
In this study, a mathematical model is introduced to simulate the coupled heat transfer equation and Stefan condition occurring in moving boundary problems such as the solidification process in the continuous casting machines. In the continuous casting process, there exists a two-phase Stefan problem with moving boundary. The control-volume finite difference approach together with the boundary ...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics study of thermal phenomena in an ultrathin liquid film sheared between solid surfaces: the influence of the crystal plane on energy and momentum transfer at solid-liquid interfaces.
A molecular dynamics study has been performed on a liquid film sheared between moving solid walls. Thermal phenomena that occur in the Couette-like flow were examined, including energy conversion from macroscopic flow energy to thermal energy, i.e., viscous heating in the macroscopic sense, and heat conduction from the liquid film to the solid wall via liquid-solid interfaces. Four types of cry...
