摘要
The square-well fluid with hard-sphere diameters is studied within the framework of Thermodynamic Geometry (TG). Coexistence and spinodal curves, as well as the Widom line for ranges k* = 1:25; 1:5; 2:0; 3:0 for this fluid are carefully studied using geometric methods. We are able to show that, unlike coexistence curves, an exact result can be given along all the thermodynamic space and for all potential ranges for spinodal curves. Additionally, R-Widom line which is defined as the locus of extrema of the curvature scalar is calculated as a function of the potential range, satisfying near the crit-ical point a relation that bears a resemblance with the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. Besides, a brief exploration of scalar curvature criticality is also provided.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
