Abstract

The character and structural features of hydrogen-bonded associates in sub- and supercritical water are studied by analyzing distributions of the dipole moments of water molecules at P = 40, 80, and 100 MPa and T = 373–773 K, calculated using Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics. The main types of hydrogen-bonded structures and their changes upon isobaric heating are determined. It is shown that clusters with tetrahedral configurations exist in supercritical water only under high pressure.
