Chemical reaction and diffusion: A comparison of molecular dynamics simulations with continuum solutions
Abstract:

Molecular dynamics simulations using the Lennard-Jones energy potential are compared with continuum solutions of reaction and diffusion in a dilute gas. The reaction model is a passive one in which high-energy bath atoms create a species, at dilute concentrations, which may have a very fast consumption reaction. This construction is designed based on typical fast reaction pathways involved in the fuel breakup in a hydrocarbon flame. Using reaction rates and diffusivities obtained from the molecular simulations allows the continuum solution to describe the reactive atom density spatial distribution with good accuracy. Based on this agreement, it is possible to estimate which reaction rates will produce negligible diffusive spreading, and hence, which species might be assumed to be in chemical equilibrium in continuum reacting flow calculations.
