Dimensional results predicted here are consistent with those reported by Skoulidas et al. . The location for the boundaries of the outer gaseous layer in the nanopore system, given by our result, agree with those from the MD study-the curved wall acting to intensify the attractive well and thus move the repulsive region closer to the carbon wall, as compared with Figure : Cross section of cylindrical carbon nanopore of radius R o . We seek the net LJ potential for a particle at point P due to the sum of all infinitesimal sections of the outer wall which is taken to have a linear particle density A. a lone particle-particle interaction. Other qualitative features of this layering phenomenon, that have been predicted by MD studies, such as the layering becoming more intense as the pore size decreases, are confirmed by this work as well.
