Kinetic energy heat versus temperature

Here Tq are coordinates in a reference volume Vq and r = potential energy of Ar crystals has been computed [288] as well as lattice constants, thermal expansion coefficients, and isotope effects in other Lennard-Jones solids. In Fig. 4 we show the kinetic and potential energy of an Ar crystal in the canonical ensemble versus temperature for different values of P we note that in the classical hmit (P = 1) the low temperature specific heat does not decrease to zero however, with increasing P values the quantum limit is approached. In Fig. 5 the isotope effect on the lattice constant (at / = 0) in a Lennard-Jones system with parameters suitable for Ne atoms is presented, and a comparison with experimental data is made. Please note that in a classical system no isotope effect can be observed, x "" and the deviations between simulations and experiments are mainly caused by non-optimized potential parameters. 

The gas particles in this cylinder take up a given volume at a given temperature. When the cylinder is heated, the kinetic energy of the particles increases. The volume of the gas increases, pushing the piston outward. Thus the distance that the piston moves is a measure of the increase in volume of the gas as it is heated. Note that the graph of volume versus temperature extrapolates to -273.15°C, or 0 K. 

Model-free kinetics software employs numerical integration methods to measure activation energy versus conversion from cure exotherms at three or more heating rates, or from isothermal data at three or more temperatures. In both cases a minimum of four runs is recommended. Predictions like conversion-time plots and calculated DSC curves are made using Eq. (3.31). An advanced version of MFK software allows analysis of data from arbitrary heating programs, such as combined ramp and isothermal. A drawback of the commercial software is that a discrete mathematical relationship is not produced that can be exported and incorporated into cure models.
