Abstract
We have extended the density functional approach proposed by Kim et al. (2011) for the higher-order perturbative contributions to study the structural and interfacial properties of hard-core Yukawa and Jagla fluids with the repulsive and attractive potentials. The higher-order perturbative contributions have been estimated by using the weighted-density approximation and the bulk pressure of model fluids. The new functional has been utilized to compute the particle density distribution, compressibility factor, and phase coexistence curve within the nanopores. The calculated results illustrate that for the hard-core Yukawa (HCY) fluid, the present theory provides a significant improvement over other approximations proposed by Kim et al. (2011) and based on the second-order perturbative term even for the low temperatures and predicts a surface-induced liquid–vapor phase transition within the nanopore. The present theory predicts the interfacial properties of the Jagla fluid characterized by the repulsive ramp and attractive ramp potentials well, and provides better results than the two-reference model proposed by Gußmann et al. (2020). However, the accuracy between the theory and simulation results for the Jagla fluid slightly deteriorates at low bulk density due to the relatively strong repulsive interaction between particles.
期刊介绍:
Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high-quality papers dealing with experimental, theoretical, and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluids, solids, and interfaces. Subjects of interest include physical/phase and chemical equilibria; equilibrium and nonequilibrium thermophysical properties; fundamental thermodynamic relations; and stability. The systems central to the journal include pure substances and mixtures of organic and inorganic materials, including polymers, biochemicals, and surfactants with sufficient characterization of composition and purity for the results to be reproduced. Alloys are of interest only when thermodynamic studies are included, purely material studies will not be considered. In all cases, authors are expected to provide physical or chemical interpretations of the results.
Experimental research can include measurements under all conditions of temperature, pressure, and composition, including critical and supercritical. Measurements are to be associated with systems and conditions of fundamental or applied interest, and may not be only a collection of routine data, such as physical property or solubility measurements at limited pressures and temperatures close to ambient, or surfactant studies focussed strictly on micellisation or micelle structure. Papers reporting common data must be accompanied by new physical insights and/or contemporary or new theory or techniques.
