An improved method for studying liquid–liquid phase equilibria in the Gibbs ensemble is described. The improvement is based on the excluded volume map sampling (EVMS) technique, recently introduced by Deitrick et al., which has been shown to increase the liquid density range over which the Widom particle insertion method can be applied for the calculation of the chemical potential. Application of EVMS in the Gibbs ensemble greatly improves the efficiency of the particle interchange moves in a Gibbs simulation. We first demonstrate the improved method with Gibbs simulations of liquid‐liquid phase equilibria in a two‐component Lennard‐Jones fluid. The map method results in a significant reduction in the computing time required for these simulations when the number of attempted interchanges is large. A detailed simulation study of fluid–fluid phase equilibria in a model nitrogen‐helium mixture was performed using the EVMS Gibbs technique. Typically, a Gibbs simulation of liquid–liquid equilibrium in this flu...
