Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations are a common tool to investigate transport properties of electrolytes. Typically, periodic boundary conditions (pbc) are applied to simulate energetically closed systems, which are contrary to experimental systems with interfaces. Electrophoretic NMR (eNMR) experiments show that the incompressibility is dominating the transport properties of electrolytes, leading to an application of local conservation of volume. [1] Inspired by this, we set up simplified models to simulate binary liquids, imitating ionic liquids (IL), within interfaces, resulting in energetically open systems. After applying external (electric) fields, various properties of the model systems such as average velocities, number densities, volume densities, etc. were evaluated. A transition from local conservation of momentum towards local conservation of volume was observed. The velocities of all systems portrayed oscillations due to sound waves. A general analysis of dynamic processes on different time scales for systems without explicit charges was achieved. A comparison between systems with and without explicit charges was conducted, proving the superiority of the advanced charged model due to higher incompressibility. [1] J. Phys. Chem.
