Dear David Dear allI did the serial run with the same topology and grompp: even if the simulation time is still short (due by the serial run), the temperature profiles are the same (see attached file).
As further check, I removed the annealing and the temperature rises to 160 K after ~0.5ps without problem. So I do not think that it is a problem of the shell polarizability with the running in parallel.
Could be a problem of the shell polarizability with annealing? Thanks again Ivan On 03/22/2011 10:45 AM, Ivan Gladich wrote:
Yes, I am running in parallel... Now I will try to run in serial to see if the problem persist....

There is a redmine issue for this, and it will be fixed soon.Dear all, I would like to heat, very slowly, a ice box of 1796 SWM4-NDP water. This kind of water has 4 sites plus a shell and I am using a small time step (0.1 fms) to heat my ice box from 0 K top 160K in 1 ns. To do that I used a linear annealing from 0 to 160 K.The simulation runs without problem but I cannot reach the desire temperature.In other words, if I look my md.log file I can see the ref_t that linearincrease from 0 to 160 K in 1 ns but the system temperature seems to do not follow the thermostate temperature.If I plot the temperature obtained from g_energy, the temperature of thesystem remains constant at ~36 K. I attach also my temperature profile up to 600ps. Due to the small time step the simulation takes a bit of time but it is clear that the temperature remain constant I have tried to find in the mail list some similar problem without success... Here below I report my grompp. Maybe I missed something. Thank in advance for any suggestions.
