摘要
Computer simulations have been performed to determine the coordination number of square-well (SW) fluids for wide ranges of densities, temperatures, and potential widths. These data are used to test the performance of a new coordination number model derived on the basis of the quasi-chemical approximation. The model presents a considerable improvement over other previously reported theoretical models based on similar grounds. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
