a bit messy but this is data from g_energy for the system with increasing
temperature (300 K-1000 K), and constant pressure of 1000 bar (so 100 000
000 Pascals):

        3180.08

all uncorrected for the number of particles in the box (so Etot is in kJ/256
mol of particles)

when i use this data to get H myself i get:

H
kJ/mol
-725.32948
242.7114
1188.90386
2071.63498
2881.65838
3632.9828
4345.2573
5017.41396

again uncorrected for the number of particles in the box

Thoughts?
