Re: [AMBER] trouble with cooling down the system

running at 800K with constant pressure is causing your system to
boil/evaporate.
you should find work in the literature that successfully did what you want
to do, and follow their methods closely. I suggest equilibrating first at
300K until the pressure and density are stable, then switch to constant
volume for your heating and cooling steps.
