AB  - Molecular simulation of fluid systems in the presence of surfaces require computationally expen-sive calculations due to the large number of solid–fluid pair interactions involved. Representingthe explicit solid as a continuous wall with an effective potential can significantly reduce thecomputational  time  and  allows  exploring  larger  temporal  and  spatial  scales.  Different  ana-lytical expressions can be found in the literature depending on the structural characteristicsof the solid and the approximations adopted in the derivation. The well-known (10-4-3) Steelepotential is one such analytic expression that faithfully represents the effective solid–fluid inter-actions for homonuclear crystalline solids with hexagonal lattice symmetry. However, this andmost of the effective potentials found in the literature have been developed for fluids and solidsinteracting exclusively through Lennard-Jones potentials. In this work, we extend the Steelemodel to obtain the effective wall–fluid potentials for Mie force fields. We perform moleculardynamics simulations of coarse-grained fluids modelled via the SAFT force field approach inthe presence of explicit and implicit surfaces to compare structural and dynamic properties inboth representations. Also, we study the adsorption of ethane into slit-like pores with explicitand  implicit  surfaces  via  grand  canonical  Monte  Carlo  simulations.  We  explore  the  validityand the improvement in the simulation performance as well as the limitations of the proposedexpression.
