Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulations concerning a nano-scale liquid bridge between the solid walls are conducted. The 12-6 Lennard-Jones molecules corresponding to Argon are suspended between the platinum walls. The temperature of the wall is controlled by applying the phantom molecules. The temperature difference between the walls is applied after fully developing the system at a certain constant temperature for a long enough period. Net flow of the liquid-state molecules is observed in the bridge. The flow is almost two dimensional recirculating motion. The effect of the liquid bridge size and the temperature difference are discussed.
