Mark -------- Original Message -------- Subject: some questions about simulate a liquid-vapor interface of a solution, many thanks Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2008 22:40:05 +0800 (CST) From: beibei <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, Mark Thank you very much to your reply. I cannot undersand some points in your reply. How to compute the volume that will lead to this pressure when the system is equilibrated? in addition, do you mean the sysytem is sandwich box or the cubic box? looking forward to your advice. Thank you very much. Best wishes. Beibei beibei wrote: > Hi all, > I want to simulate the liquid-vapor interface of I lithium > bromide solution at 303K and 0.008bar.

You need to determine a volume that will lead to this pressure when the system is equilibrated. Then you need to measure for long enough to get a meaningful average pressure. Trial and error might be the most effective approach. Best of luck! > If I used NPT emsemble in the second step, the box > becomes smaller with the run time. Of course... you won't get phase separation at equilibrium in NPT unless you happen to be at a critical point. Think about heating and cooling a closed and open beaker of real water. > I want to know how to do when I > want to simulate the liquid-vapor interface of a solution at a low pressure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 雅虎邮箱,您的终生邮箱! <http://cn.mail.yahoo.com/> _______________________________________________ gmx-users mailing list gmx-users@gromacs.org http://www.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/search before posting!
