Hello dears,

I want to solvate different conformations of a molecule in a water box and I want to have the same number of solvent molecules in my box at the end. I do it with genbox but end up with different number of solvent molecules. A random insertion of more molecules results in a box which would not be easily equilibrated. I also tried to solvate in a larger box and then delete some molecules from the end of file so that I have a certain number of molecules for all of them, but it also results in a strange looking environments in the box which mostly lead to an equilibration crash.

Does one know any practical strategy to solvate a molecule in a box and have the number of solvent molecules fixed??

I appreciate any suggestions,
regards,
Peyman
