Influence of temperature on the structure of liquid water

<正> Molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out for liquid water at 7 different temperatures to understand the nature of hydrogen bonding at molecular level through the investigation of the effects of temperature on the geometry of water molecules. The changes in bond length and bond angle of water molecules from gaseous state to liquid state have been observed, and the change in the bond angle of water molecules in liquid against temperature has been revealed, which has not been seen in literature so far. The analysis of the radial distribution functions and the coordinate numbers shows that, on an average, each water molecule in liquid acts as both receptor and donor, and forms at least two hydrogen bonds with its neigbors. The analysis of the results also indicates that the water molecules form clusters in liquid.

液态水几何构型的分子动力学模拟

利用ＭＣＹＬ势对液态水进行分子动力学模拟，以探求近程和远程相互作用及液体的有序结构对水分子几何构型的影响，并确定对液态中水分子几何构型起作用的主要范围。模拟给出的液态水中原子对径向分布函数和水分子键长键角的变化与实验值能较好地符合。研究结果表明，液态水分子几何构型除与氢键的形成有关外，还与液体的近程有序结构有很大关系。键长的变化对这种近程有序结构虽不敏感，但键角的变化则对此非常灵敏。液态中第二水合层对键角的影响极为重要。
