In the present paper we propose the van der Waals-like model, which allows a purely analytical study of fluid properties including the equation of state, phase behavior and supercritical fluctuations. We take a square-well system as an…
The equations for Widom lines for the supercritical van der Waals fluid were considered in the paper J. Chem. Phys. 135, 084503 (2011). But the equations for the speed of sound and its special Widom line were incorrect. The correct…
We have performed extensive molecular dynamics simulations to study noise power spectra of density and potential energy fluctuations of a Lennard-Jones model of a fluid in the supercritical region. Emanating from the liquid-vapor critical…
Supercritical fluids near the critical point are characterized by liquid-like densities and gas-like transport properties. These features are purposely exploited in different contexts ranging from natural products extraction/fractionation…
In this work the interface system of the van der Waals fluid is investigated by using the density gradient theory incorporated with the mean-field theory. Based on the mean-field dividing interface generated by the Maxwell construction, we…
The celebrated van der Waals model describes simple fluids in the thermodynamic limit and predicts the existence of a critical point associated to the gas-liquid phase transition. However the behaviour of critical isotherms according to the…
We investigate a quite strong turbulence in a supercritical fluid near a gas-liquid critical point. Specifically, we consider a case in which the Kolmogorov scale is much smaller than the equilibrium correlation length $\xi$. Although…

Isothermal interfacial zones are investigated starting from a local energy which can be considered as the sum of two terms: one corresponding to a medium with a uniform composition equal to the local one and a second one associated with the…
We find a thermodynamic description of gas-liquid criticality that is different from van der Waals and mean-field theories. At the critical temperature there is no critical point; a liquid phase coexists with a vapor phase with densities…
In the study of fluid phases, the Ruppeiner geometry provides novel ways for constructing the phase boundaries (known as the $R$-crossing method) and the Widom line, which is considered by many to be the continuation of the coexistence…
The square-well fluid with hard-sphere diameters is studied within the framework of Thermodynamic Geometry (TG). Coexistence and spinodal curves, as well as the Widom line for ranges $\lambda^{*} = 1.25, 1.5, 2.0, 3.0$ for this fluid are…
We obtain families of generalised van der Waals equations characterised by an even number $n=2,4,6$ and a continuous free parameter which is tunable for a critical compressibility factor. Each equation features two adjacent critical points…
The nuclear liquid-gas transition at normal nuclear densities, $n \sim n_0 = 0.16$ fm$^{-3}$, and small temperatures, $T \sim 20$ MeV, has a large influence on analytic properties of the QCD grand-canonical thermodynamic potential. A…
Gravity-driven convection of fluid at parameters near its thermodynamic critical point inside a porous layer heated from below (Rayleigh-Darcy convection) is studied. The fluid having the temperature slightly above the critical one is…
We study thermo-mechanical properties of matter at extreme conditions deep in the supercritical state, at temperatures exceeding the critical one up to four orders of magnitude. We calculate the Gr\"{u}neisen parameter {\gamma} and find…
The dimensionless value of critical compressibility factor in the van der Waals theory of gas-liquid critical point is a universal constant, $Z_\text{c} = 0.375$. Experimentally measured values of this quantity for simple fluids are…
It is shown that the existence of single critical point of the fluid described by van der Waals equation of state is not the hypothesis and it is the consequence of the thermodynamic conditions of liquid-vapor phase equilibrium. It is also…
The thermodynamic behavior of a fluid near a vapor-liquid and, hence, asymmetric critical point is discussed within a general ``complete'' scaling theory incorporating pressure mixing in the nonlinear scaling fields as well as corrections…
