A study of heterogeneous nucleation has practical reasons because it occurs more often in nature then homogeneous. The existing theories describe heterogeneous nucleation mostly phenomenological and are the extensions of classical nucleation theory. When fluids are confined in the pore their properties differ significantly from the bulk. In this work we report a study of one of the simplest models that is still capable to reproduce the thermodynamic behaviour of classical fluids, the Lennard-Jones system. Confining it between the structureless walls and observing layering in the system we ask ourselves: do walls induce heterogeneous nucleation? Does it start from the layers? Is the crystallization a 3D or 2D process? The talk will summarise our current answers to the above questions.
