Abstract
With the help of a computer program association and coagulation processes of binary liquid mixtures are simulated according to the Monte Carlo procedure. The program is based essentially on a two-dimensional lattice model where the potential energy of the particles are approximated by constant pair interaction energies. The kinetic energy is simulated by a Brownian motion. This Brownian motion is simulated by a site exchange process which is controlled by the environment of the particle. Extensive calculations have been performed for different mole fractions of the binary mixture and various interaction energies. As a result the time-dependence of the number of clusters formed (= interconnected areas of particles of the same kind) are discussed.
