Hello,
I'm still working on the CHARMM ff convertion into the Gromacs standards
and I wonder how exactly to convert kcals of CHARMM in to Gromacs'
KJoules. I have found 3 different constants (at least?)
- officially (SI) : 1 kcal = 4.1868 kJ
- but often : 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ
- in my graduate courses of thermodynamics = 1 kcal = 4.185 kJ

Who's right? It's probaly a debat with no end and the three answers are
probably correct ;-). But which conversion should be applied in our case?

Nicolas
