A New Force Field for OH^-for Computing Thermodynamic and Transport Properties of H₂and O₂in Aqueous NaOH and KOH Solutions

The thermophysical properties of aqueous electrolyte solutions are of interest for applications such as water electrolyzers and fuel cells. Molecular dynamics (MD) and continuous fractional component Monte Carlo (CFCMC) simulations are used to calculate densities, transport properties (i.e., self-diffusivities and dynamic viscosities), and...

Brick-CFCMC: Open Source Software for Monte Carlo Simulations of Phase and Reaction Equilibria Using the Continuous Fractional Component Method

We present a new molecular simulation code, Brick-CFCMC, for performing Monte Carlo simulations using state-of-the-art simulation techniques. The Continuous Fractional Component (CFC) method is implemented for simulations in the NVT/NPT ensembles, the Gibbs Ensemble, the Grand-Canonical Ensemble, and the Reaction Ensemble. Molecule transfers...
