Capillary condensation revisited    [PDF]

Petr Yatsyshin, Nikos Savva, Serafim Kalliadasis
We present new results and insights on liquid-vapor phase transitions of a fluid with long-range dispersion intermolecular forces spatially confined by a substrate that forms a rectangular cavity and also exerts a long-range dispersion potential. Our analysis, based on the statistical mechanics of liquids, namely density functional theory, allows for a systematic and complete exploration of the system's phase space, in particular density configurations and phase diagrams.
