Fluid Adsorption In A Nanoslit With Rough Walls

Disciplines

It is planned to consider theoretically adsorption of argon between two parallel rough walls composed of solid carbon dioxide. The amount of adsorbed fluid will be determined as function of roughness, distance between walls, and temperature. Calculations will be performed using existing software packages.
