Abstract
This work is concerned with a valid representation of the solid-phase equation of state (EOS), the validity of which is evaluated by comparing to Monte Carlo (MC) simulation results. The proposed EOS has been developed by employing an optimal division of the Lannard-Jones (LJ) potential and an effective temperature- and density-dependent diameter into the framework of the simplified perturbation theory. Then, with the aim of extending to the chain systems, the conventional chain contribution (i.e. TPT1) is added to the proposed model (i.e. the atomic LJ system). Finally, the solid-state EOS based on Helmholtz free energy will be introduced for low temperature and high density conditions. To verify the accuracy of the proposed model, its performance is compared with the results of MC simulation. The comparison between the obtained results from the proposed model and the MC simulations shows that the EOS can satisfactorily predict the properties of the solid LJ system, both for the atomic system and for the chains.
