Molecular simulation study of the heat capacity of metastable water between 100K and 300K

Abstract

Molecular simulation study of the heat capacity of metastable water between 100K and 300K Molecular simulations have been used to study the heat capacity of metastable liquid water at low temperature adsorbed on a smooth surface. These calculations aim at modelling water properties measured by experiments performed on water films adsorbed on Vycor nanoporous silica at low temperature. In particular, the study focuses on the non-monotonous variation of the heat capacity around between 100 and 300 K.
