Abstract

This report mentions non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of heat conduction in alkane liquids. In the previous study, the authors have analyzed the molecular mechanism of heat conduction in liquid n-alkanes ofvarious molecular lengths by utilizing the united-atom model. Although the results were satisfactorily reasonable, the influence of C-H bonds was not clarified because the bonds were ignored in the united atom model. To analyze the influence, a non-equilibrium MD simulation was performed in the present study for heat conduction in liquid n-alkanes applying an all-atom model. The influence of the presence of H sites and the contributions of the C-H bond were examined.
