Abstract

A molecular dynamics (MD) study was performed on water over a wide range of temperature and density. The vapor-liquid coexistence region and near-critical region were intensively studied. The Carravetta-Clementi (CC) potential function was applied, and simulation for a system of 256 molecules was performed for 97 state points. Dependence of cluster size and its probability distribution on temperature and density were analyzed in detail.
