The Intramolecular Pressure and the Extension of the Critical Point’s Influence Zone on the Order Parameter

<div>Profiles of the contributions to the normal (a) and tangential pressures (b), for ethane in the VLE at 100 K as a function of the simulation cell position in the inhomogeneous direction of the simulation cell. Kinetic, intramolecular, and intermolecular contributions for ethane are represented in the figure by blue, red, and green profiles, respectively. Black profiles represent the total pressure in the respective direction.</div>
