Thanks for all the helpful response. But do I have to use dispersion
correction when I use PME? I don't quite understand what dispersion
correction do. Sometime I found using dispersion correction make my
results worse for a large molecule system.

Read the manual please.

        Dear Users:

        Anyone can explain why the density of the water models increase with
        increase the cutoff length. I tried a couple water models in
        reaction-field, PME simulations.The cutoff length ranged from 0.9 to
        1.5. They all show the same trend. Then there must be some reasons.
        Anyone can tell me why?

    Van der Waals interactions. I guess you have not turned on the
    dispersion correction. If you do the effect should be far less.
