Non-equilibrium structure of the vapor-liquid interface of a binary fluid
Abstract
The evaporation of a binary liquid mixture of monatomic species into near vacuum has been investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. It has been assumed that atomic interaction forces can be derived by Lennard-Jones potentials. Results are presented about surface composition changes induced by evaporation, the shape of the distribution functions of evaporating atoms. Estimates of evaporation coefficients are given.
