Dear All,
I try to calculate the solvation energy of ethanol in water using MMPBSA.py
to do the GBSA and PBSA calculation.
QUESTION1: How do I set the dielectic constant for GBSA, could not find
parameter for that in the gb section in the manual?
My command was
MMPBSA.py -O -i mmpbsa.in -o FINAL_RESULTS_MMPBSA.dat -sp
eth_solvated.prmtop -cp eth.prmtop -y prod1.mdcrd
In the output file (FINAL_RESULTS_MMPBSA.dat) one has
for the generalised born:
GENERALIZED BORN:

QUESTION2: Which value is the solvation energy?
The input file:
