The surface tension is a measure of the work required to build up a surface ....

Canonical Ensemble: Two phases;

;

where

  • is the number of particles
  • is the volume
  • is the temperature
  • is the surface area


... preliminary version (sketchy) to be continued soon, as soon as I find a way to distinghuis A (Helmholtz) and A (surface area)

Computer Simulation

  • Binder procedure
  • Explicit interface
