Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Potassium Chloride Melting(.I. Microcrystal Simulation and Sample Size Effect)
author
Abstract:
The effect of sample size on the melting parameter of simulated potassium chloride microcrystal is investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. The size of microcrystal is varied from 8 to 4096 ions. The increase in melting temperature with sample size was found to be in good agreement with the theory.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Potassium Chloride Melting (II. Constant Volume and Constant Pressure Simulation of Filled System)
We have used a simple ionic potential to simulate the melting of KCI pseudo-infinite crystal. Two MD simulations, one with constant Volume and the other with constant pressure condition are performed. These results are compared with the previous micro-sample simulation results. In the constant volume simulation the melting temperature increase substantially with increasing pressure. A method fo...

The melting of a 64 ion microcrystal of KCI was studied by means of a molecular dynamics computer simulation. We used a central pair interaction with an inverse power law repulsion. The thermodynamics, kinetic and structural properties such as melting temperature, latent heat, mean square displacement, diffusion constant, radial distribution function and bond angle distribution are calculated. ...
