Abstract: Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is used to study the nucleation of nanobubbles to explore the role of microstructure coupling temperature factors in a ternary system consisting of simple Leonard Jones fluids(solid, liquid, gas). First, the model reveals the nucleation and height changes of nanobubbles under the influence of the temperature-coupling structure in the static fluid. Second, it studies the role of nanobubbles in dynamic slippage. The results show that firstly, temperature has a significant effect on the nucleation and height of nanobubbles. Increasing the system temperature to a certain extent promotes the nucleation of nanobubbles. Above a certain temperature, bubble nucleation is limited, and the height of nanobubbles decreases with increasing temperature. Secondly, The changes in the size and relative position of the nanogrooves are of great significance for bubble nucleation. Keeping the system temperature and the relative position of the groove unchanged, the increase of the groove depth promotes the formation of bubbles. In addition, due to the existence of nanobubbles, the fluid flow properties in the nanochannel and the interface slip phenomenon will change.
