✦ Synopsis


Vapor-liquid equilibria of two Stockmayer fluids have been obtained by computer simulations in the Gibbs ensemble. The long-range dipolar interactions have been considered within the reaction field geometry. Two different criteria for the reaction field dielectric constant, tRF, have been applied. It is shown that t RF does not significantly affect either the coexistence properties or the structure of coexisting phases for the simulated systems.
