Hi Gromacs users,
I have a few questions related to solvation free energy calculation via
thermodynamic integration.

#ifdef FLEX_SPC
#include "flexspc.itp"
#else
#include "spc.itp"
#endif

coulombtype            = generalized-reaction-field
rcoulomb               = 1.4
rvdw                   = 1.4
epsilon_rf             = 54.0

I cannot state for other parameters, but i'm surprised for the (relatively?) low value for epsilon_rf used here.

For instance in Geerke and van Gunsteren (ChempPhysChem 2006, 7, 674-678), the value used for reaction-field (not generalized) is 61 for SPC water (referring to Heinz, van Gunsteren & Hunenberger, J Chem Phys 2001, 115, p1125-1136).

Is this value a special case for 'generalized-reaction-field' ?

Thanks in advance for clarifications.

Stéphane
