摘要
Convergence properties of standard Monte Carlo simulations for various fluid systems are studied both theoretically and experimentally. It turns out that pseudo-dynamic behaviour found for homogeneous fluids with periodic boundary conditions differs substantially from that for fluids at interfaces and for other inhomogeneous, anisotropic or less than three-dimensional systems. The results are applied to the problems of error estimation and the optimum frequency of measurement of the quantities.
