Abstract
We test the influence of the Coulomb interaction on the thermodynamic and c luster generation properties of a system of classical particles described b y different lattice models. Numerical simulations show that the Coulomb int eraction produces essentially a shift in temperature of quantities like the specific heat but not qualitative changes. We also consider a cellular mod el. The thermodynamic properties of the system are qualitatively unaltered.
