This chapter provides the essential background to a novice modeler on the choice of simulation techniques used to model Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs). It describes methods used to obtain important physical, thermodynamic, transport, and structural properties of bulk DES systems including an evaluation of the strengths and drawbacks of the current simulation models. The chapter discusses future directions for simulating DES‐based systems. One of the major thrust areas of ab initio investigations on DESs has been to provide a physical explanation for the observed low melting point in these systems and its effects on their physicochemical properties. Molecular simulations have played a crucial role in conjunction with experimental investigations in elucidating the structure–property relationships of DESs. Classical molecular dynamics simulations that obey Newton's laws of motion use force fields to calculate the potential energy of a system as a function of their atomic coordinates.
