The frame spins impose an external field on the rest of the spins (active spins). We demonstrate that this “porous Ising model” can be seen as a minimal model for condensation transitions of gas molecules in metal-organic frameworks. UsingMonte Carlo simulation techniques, we compare the phase behavior of a porous Ising model with that of a particle-based model for the condensation of methane (CH4) in the isoreticular metal-organic framework IRMOF- 16. For both models, we find a line of first-order phase transitions that end in a critical point. We show that the critical behavior in both cases belongs to the 3D Ising universality class, in contrast to other phase transitions in confinement such as capillary condensation.engAn Ising model for metal-organic frameworksjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.4998550http://aip.scitation.orgopen access531st-order phase-transitionsMonte-CarloAdsorption sitesGaS-adsorptionMolecular simulationHydrogen adsorptionCritical-behaviorCritical-pointFree-energySize.Física-Modelos matemáticos
