Dissipative particle dynamics with energy conservation (eDPD) was applied to study natural convection in differentially heated enclosures. The eDPD simulations were compared to finite volume (FV) solutions. It was found that the eDPD method appropriately predicts the temperature and flow fields inside the enclosure. T…

We report time evolution studies of low coverage CO adsorption (surface hydrogen site blocking < 40%) and oxidative stripping on stepped Pt(776) and Pt(554) surfaces. It was observed that there is no preferential site occupancy for CO adsorption on step or terrace. It is proposed that CO adsorption onto these surfaces…
