Theoretical investigation of methane hydrate nucleation kinetic from “water + gas” and “sea water + gas” mixtures

Abstract In this work we studied transition mechanics of a dynamic hydrogen bond network of water into a stable hydrogen bond network during gas clathrate hydrate formation process. For this purpose, we used Molecular Dynamic simulation methods and a bunch of home-made programs for determining struc...

Description
Summary:Abstract In this work we studied transition mechanics of a dynamic hydrogen bond network of water into a stable hydrogen bond network during gas clathrate hydrate formation process. For this purpose, we used Molecular Dynamic simulation methods and a bunch of home-made programs for determining structural properties during transition process. We have found that at certain conditions the network transformation process involves the whole system from the very beginning and could be considered as a collective effect, that results in high speed of hydrate formation.
