Schematic diagram of the BF model (adapted from Fig. 10 of Ref. 1).

The BF (Bernal and Fowler) model [1] is one of the original models designed to study liquid water. It is worth noting that this model bears a striking resemblance to the geometry of the TIP4P model of water, which was proposed in 1983, and has been extremely popular ever since.
