A Monte Carlo simulation of liquid water was carried out in order to study the influence of an external magnetic field on the internal energy and heat capacity of pure water. Analysis of the structure of water was made by calculating the radial distribution function of water molecules. A multipeak function of the magnetic effect versus magnetic flux density was found. A significant change in the internal energy and heat capacity occurred at a magnetic flux density of about 0.2 T. In particular, when the magnetic flux density increases, the second peak of the water–water radial distribution function increases markedly. This has been demonstrated by calculations for both 64- and 125-molecule systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
