Achieving accurate entropy and melting point by ab initio molecular dynamics and zentropy theory: Application to fluoride and chloride molten salts
Shun-Li Shang, Nigel L. E. Hew, Rushi Gong +6
We have recently developed a breakthrough methodology for rapidly computing entropy in both solids and liquids by integrating a multiscale entropy approach (known as zentropy theor…
Heat Transport in Ionic Liquids
Cillian Cockrell, Aleksandra DragoviÄ
Heat transfer in liquids is a very challenging problem as it combines the competing effect of high frequency oscillations, which dominate liquid heat capacity, and diffusive motion…
Thermodynamic modeling of the LiCl-KCl-LaCl system with Bayesian model selection and uncertainty quantification
Rushi Gong, Shun-Li Shang, Vitaliy G. Goncharov +5
Chloride molten salts are increasingly used in pyroprocessing techniques for the separation of lanthanides. Understanding thermodynamic properties of these salts is essential to pr…
Thermodynamics and transport in molten chloride salts and their mixtures
Cillian Cockrell, Margaret-Ann Withington, Harvey L. Devereux +7
Molten salts are important in a number of energy applications, but the fundamental mechanisms operating in ionic liquids are poorly understood, particularly at higher temperatures.…
Performance of the MACE-MP-0 potential for calculating viscosity in LiF molten salt
Harvey L. Devereux, Margaret-Ann Withington, Cillian Cockrell +2
We perform molecular dynamics simulations of molten Lithium Fluoride using the MACE-MP-0 (small) machine learnt interatomic potential and the classical Buckingham and Born-Huggins-…
