Abstract

Energetically most favorable configurations of polyhedral water clusters were calculated using a new discrete model allowing for electrostatic interactions between molecules being the second and third neighbors in a hydrogen-bond network. Calculation results are presented with pair-additive potentials ST2, TIP4P, and TIP5P and compared with the results of recent quantum-chemical calculations. Energetically most favorable structures of cyclic water clusters and extended gas hydrate frameworks are discussed.
