NET Applied to Phase Transitions

Phase transitions are central in many industrial problems, for instance, in distillation, absorption, condensation, manufacture of liquid natural gas, and multiphase flow. We shall use the liquid/vapour transition to illustrate the basic hypotheses and usefulness of NET for surfaces, a relatively new application. For applications to homogeneous phases, we refer the reader to the basic literature see Section 2, 

R0sjorde et al studied the phase transition in a pure fluid using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations (NEMD). The NEMD method solves Newton s equations of motion for several thousand particles in an imaginary box see Hafskjold for a review. The particles interacted with a Lennard-Jones-type pair
