This study explores a fluid exhibiting vapor-liquid and liquid-liquid phase separation. A novel local density simulation method accurately defines stability boundaries for density-dependent potentials.

Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Computational Fluid Dynamics

Background:

  • A simple fluid with a density-dependent pair potential exhibits vapor-liquid and liquid-liquid phase transitions.
  • Standard simulation methods struggle to define stability boundaries due to density fluctuations frustrating phase separation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To deeply explore the behavior of this specific fluid.
  • To introduce and detail a local density simulation technique for accurate stability boundary determination.
  • To highlight the general significance for density-dependent potentials.

Main Methods:

  • Development and application of a simulation procedure utilizing local densities.
  • Analysis of thermodynamic states where phase separation is influenced by density fluctuations.

  • Comparison with integral equations and global density simulations.
  • Main Results:

    • The local density simulation technique accurately defines stability boundaries.
    • Discrepancies were observed between thermodynamically estimated critical points and divergent correlations in global simulations.
    • The potential drives phase separation, which is counteracted by density fluctuations.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed local density simulation method is crucial for accurately characterizing phase transitions in fluids with density-dependent potentials.
    • Findings have broad implications for understanding liquid metals and charge-stabilized colloids.
