R. China) Abstract: Molecular dynamics simulation was used to study the effect of the outer-wall on water flux in the inner channel by varying the inter-layer spacing of unconventional double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) under reverse-osmosis conditions. Salt rejection and the water transport behavior inside the DWCNT were also examined. In the simulation, 0.5 mol ∙L-1 NaCl aqueous solution was used to mimic seawater, and the chiral index of the inner-wall was fixed at (8, 8). A constant force on the salt solution produced pressure.
