The analysis shows that classical theories accurately predict free energy size-dependency for large clusters, revealing their reliability in surface tension calculations.
Key metrics include surface tension for infinitely large clusters and the Tolman length derived from free energy data and cluster sizes.
Using aggregation-volume-bias Monte Carlo, the method computes nucleation free energies and compares results to classical nucleation theory and the Tolman equation.
This work supports the validity of classical theories in explaining surface tension properties, enhancing understanding of thermodynamic relationships.
