Phase diagrams of Lennard-Jones fluids
نویسنده
چکیده
Smit and Frenkel’ have shown that the phase diagram of the two-dimensional Lennard-Jones fluid depends largely on the details of the truncation of the potential. In this Note, Gibbs-ensemble calculations are reported for the three-dimensional Lennard-Jones fluid. As expected, the phase diagram for this system also depends significantly on the details of the truncation. The Lennard-Jones potential is defined by

Lennard-Jones Energy Parameter for Pure Fluids from Scaled Particle Theory
By considering the fact that the surface tension of a real fluid arises from a combination of both repulsive and attractive forces between molecules, a new expression for the interfacial tension has been derived from scaled particle theory (SPT) based on the work of cavity formation and the interaction energy between molecules. At the critical temperature, the interfacial tension between c...
متن کاملA self-consistent approach for modelling the interfacial properties and phase diagrams of Yukawa, Lennard-Jones and square-well fluids
A self-consistent density-functional approach is presented for describing the phase behaviour and interfacial tensions of van der Waals fluids represented by the hard-core Yukawa (HCY), Lennard-Jones (LJ) and square-well (SW) potentials. The excess Helmholtz energy functional is formulated in terms of a modified fundamental measure theory (MFMT) for the shortranged repulsion and a density-gradi...
متن کاملTHE DENSITY PROFILES OF A LENNARD -JONES FLUID CONFINED TO A SLIT
The structure of fluids confined by planar walls is studied using density functional theory. The density functional used is a generalized form of the hypernetted chain (HNC) functional which contains a term third order in the density. This term is chosen to ensure that the modified density functional gives the correct bulk pressure. The proposed density functional applied to a Lennard-Jones...

We have used Monte Carlo simulation and the Gibbs–Duhem integration technique to calculate temperature– composition and pressure–temperature phase diagrams for binary Lennard–Jones mixtures. We systematically explore Lennard–Jones parameter space to demonstrate how the features of these phase diagrams change as a function of diameter ratio, well-depth ratio, binary interaction parameter, and pr...
متن کاملA density-functional theory for bulk and inhomogeneous Lennard-Jones fluids from the energy route
A new density-functional theory is developed for representing the structural and thermodynamic properties of Lennard-Jones fluids by unifying the modified fundamental measure theory for the short-range repulsion and the first-order mean-spherical approximation ~FMSA! via the energy route for the attractive part of the intermolecular potential. This theory significantly improves the conventional...
