Journal of Chemical Physics. Reference A09.12.0028 TITLE: Can gas hydrate structures be described using classical simulations? All Authors: Maria M. Conde, Carlos Vega, Carl McBride, Eva G. Noya, Rafael Ramirez y Luis M. Sese DESCRIPTION: Results of enthalpy (H) and density (rho) from PI simulations using the TIP4PQ/2005 model at different temperatures for the empty hydrates (sI, sII and sH) and for a series of solid phases (ice Ih, II, III, V and VI). At p=1bar, H ~ E (H=U+pV) The energies at 0K were obtained by using the fit: E=a0+a1*T^2+a2*T^3 The number of molecules used in the simulations for each solid phase is denoted as N water potential: TIP4PQ/2005 simulations path-integral Phase T (K) H (kcal/mol) rho (g/cm^3) _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.214 0.810 200. -11.584 0.815 hydrate sI 150. -11.916 0.818 (N=368) 125. -12.039 0.818 100. -12.132 0.819 77. -12.200 0.819 E(at 0K)=-12.317 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.241 0.799 200. -11.610 0.803 hydrate sII 150. -11.923 0.806 (N=1088) 125. -12.048 0.807 100. -12.151 0.807 77. -12.221 0.807 E(at 0K)=-12.334 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.133 0.781 200. -11.505 0.784 hydrate sH 150. -11.832 0.787 (N=408) 125. -11.965 0.788 100. -12.064 0.788 77. -12.126 0.788 E(at 0K)=-12.236 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.372 0.921 200. -11.821 0.925 ice Ih 150. -12.160 0.928 (N=432) 125. -12.292 0.928 100. -12.401 0.928 77. -12.452 0.927 E(at 0K)=-12.559 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.343 1.160 200. -11.742 1.172 ice II 150. -12.086 1.182 (N=432) 125. -12.213 1.185 100. -12.350 1.188 77. -12.403 1.190 E(at 0K)=-12.539 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.142 1.114 200. -11.538 1.126 ice III 150. -11.880 1.134 (N=324) 125. -12.021 1.139 100. -12.120 1.142 77. -12.191 1.146 E(at 0K)=-12.317 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -11.066 1.220 200. -11.466 1.233 ice V 150. -11.805 1.244 (N=504) 125. -11.932 1.248 100. -12.064 1.251 77. -12.121 1.253 E(at 0K)=-12.253 kcal/mol _______________________________________________________________ 250. -10.861 1.290 200. -11.348 1.313 ice VI 150. -11.696 1.325 (N=360) 125. -11.821 1.330 100. -11.951 1.334 77. -12.003 1.336 E (at 0K)=-12.107 kcal/mol ________________________________________________________________
