Determination of phase equilibria for long-chain linear hydrocarbons by Monte Carlo simulation.

The focus of this study was to determine the coexistence phase equilibria for three groups of long-chain linear hydrocarbons (n-alkanes, 1-alkenes and 1-alcohols) using Monte Carlo simulation. Three common transferable united-atom force fields were used in the simulations: OPLS-UA (Jorgensen et al.,...
