On the thermodynamic theory of curvature-dependent surface tension
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
An exact equation for determining the Tolman length (TL) as a function of radius is obtained and a computational procedure for solving it is proposed. As a result of implementing t…
Thermodynamics and kinetics of nucleation in binary solutions
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
A new approach that is a combination of classical thermodynamics and macroscopic kinetics is offered for studying the nucleation kinetics in condensed binary solutions. The theory…
Surface effects in nucleation
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
The classical nucleation theory (CNT) concept of a nucleus as a fragment of the bulk new phase fails for nanosized nuclei. An extension of CNT taking into account the properties of…
Thermodynamics and kinetics of binary nucleation in ideal-gas mixtures
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
The nonisothermal single-component theory of droplet nucleation (Alekseechkin, 2014) is extended to binary case; the droplet volume V, composition x, and temperature T are the vari…
Multivariable theory of droplet nucleation in a single-component vapor
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
The multivariable theory of nucleation [N. V. Alekseechkin, J. Chem. Phys. 124, 124512 (2006)] is applied to the droplet nucleation in a supersaturated single-component vapor; the…
Comment on "generalized Gibbs' approach" [J. Chem. Phys. 119, 6166 (2003); 124, 194503 (2006)]
Nikolay V. Alekseechkin
"Generalized Gibbs' approach" of Schmelzer et al [J. Chem. Phys. 119, 6166 (2003); 124, 194503 (2006)] results in wrong conditions of equilibrium of a critical embryo with the ambi…
