Thermal and hydrodynamic properties of coronavirus at various temperature and pressure via molecular dynamics approach.

COVID-19 is an epidemic virus arising from a freshly discovered coronavirus. Most people involved with the coronavirus will experience slight to moderate respiratory disease and recover without needing particular therapy. In this work, the atomic stability of the coronavirus at different thermodynamic properties such as temperature and pressure, was studied. For this purpose, the manner of this virus by atomic precession was described with a molecular dynamics approach. For the atomic stability of coronavirus description, physical properties such as temperature, total energy, volume variation, and atomic force of this structure were reported. In molecular dynamics approach, coronavirus is precisely simulated via S, O, N, and C atoms and performed Dreiding force field to describe these atoms interaction in the virus. Simulation results show that coronavirus stability has reciprocal relation with atomic temperature and pressure. Numerically, after 2.5 ns simulation, the potential energy varies from - 31,163 to - 26,041 eV by temperature changes from 300 to 400 K. Furthermore, this physical parameter decreases to - 28,045 eV rate at 300 K and 2 bar pressure. The volume of coronavirus is another crucial parameter to the stability description of this structure. The simulation shows that coronavirus volume 92% and 14% increases by 100 K and 2 bar variation of simulation temperature and pressure, respectively.
