Abstract
Starting from the inter- and intramolecular interactions of the hydrocarbon chains the orientational long-range order in lipid membranes is calculated to study the ordered-fluid phase transition. The positional order is described by the lateral packing density and treated as an external parameter, in addition to temperature. The results for the orientational order parameter, the phase transition temperature, and the latent heat are analyzed to distinguish between the effects of the different chain interactions, the van der Waals interaction, steric hindrance, and flexibility. The dependence of the results on chain length is compared with existing experimental data.
