Hi,
I am using NVT ensemble for 901 molecules of water, and langevin
Temperature control at 298 K.
The NVT results in a density of 0.998 g/cm^. I am storing the snapshots at
1ps interval. I was initially using NpT ensemble but decided that NVT would
be a better control after reading the Nilson paper for water models
comparison.
Could you please provide some suggestions.
Also this is the way I prepared the water.top file for TIP3P model. Am I
doing something wrong. Please let me known
loadamberparams frcmod.tip3p
loadoff tip3p.lib
reac = loadpdb water.pdb
charge reac
savepdb reac mix.pdb
setbox reac vdw
saveamberparm reac wat.top wat.crd
savepdb reac watnew.pdb
thanks for all the help.
ganesh
