Liquid-vapor phase behavior of a symmetrical binary fluid mixture
Using Monte Carlo simulation and mean-field calculations, we study the liquid-vapor phase diagram of a square-well binary fluid mixture as a function of a parameter d measuring the relative strength of interactions between particles of dissimilar and similar species. The results reveal a rich variety of liquid-vapor coexistence behaviors as d is tuned. Specifically, we uncover critical end poin...
متن کاملCritical End Point Behaviour in a Binary Fluid Mixture
We consider the liquid-gas phase boundary in a binary fluid mixture near its critical end point. Using general scaling arguments we show that the diameter of the liquid-gas coexistence curve exhibits singular behaviour as the critical end point is approached. This prediction is tested by means of extensive Monte-Carlo simulations of a symmetrical Lennard-Jones binary mixture within the grand ca...
متن کاملWetting of a symmetrical binary fluid mixture on a wall.
We study the wetting behavior of a symmetrical binary fluid below the demixing temperature at a nonselective attractive wall. Although it demixes in the bulk, a sufficiently thin liquid film remains mixed. On approaching liquid vapor coexistence, however, the thickness of the liquid film increases and it may demix and then wet the substrate. We show that the wetting properties are determined by...
متن کاملPhase behavior of a symmetrical binary fluid mixture.
We have investigated the phase behavior of a symmetrical binary fluid mixture for the situation where the chemical potentials mu(1) and mu(2) of the two species differ. Attention is focused on the set of interparticle interaction strengths for which, when mu(1)=mu(2), the phase diagram exhibits both a liquid-vapor critical point and a tricritical point. The corresponding phase behavior for the ...
متن کاملContinuous demixing at liquid-vapor coexistence in a symmetrical binary fluid mixture.
We report a Monte Carlo finite-size scaling study of the demixing transition of a symmetrical Lennard-Jones binary fluid mixture. For equal concentration of species, and for a choice of the unlike-to-like interaction ratio delta=0.7, this transition is found to be continuous at liquid-vapor coexistence. The associated critical end point exhibits an Ising-like universality. These findings confir...
