Dear Justin,
I want to get energy per residue not time. if i use mdrun -rerun with energygrps in md.mdp then g_energy i obtain enery per time not residue.
at last, i don't understand how to get Energy per residue .

As I said before, as an absolute, "energy per residue" is not a straightforward term, and even if it was, likely has no physical meaning. The potential energy function is complicated, depending upon the positions of all the particles in the system; that is, nearby particles will interact via Coulombic and vdW interactions, but you can't simply extract out either of these terms for any specific residue. There are numerous useful posts in the list archive on similar topics, for example:

        Dear gromacs users,
         Is there a way to get energy values (Vdw,..) per residue at the
        end of MD prosses?

    Yes and no.  You won't be able to get, for instance, the absolute
    van der Waals energy of a residue.  That doesn't really make any
    sense, since vdW interactions take place between particles.  There
    may be some 1-4 type interactions within a residue that you could
    quantify, but not much else.

    You can decompose short-range residue-residue energies using
    energygrps in the .mdp file, and re-running the trajectory with the
    new .tpr file (mdrun -rerun), but the .edr file can quickly get out
    of hand in terms of disk usage, depending on how many groups you
    have (since you will then have essentially N^2 energy terms to write
    out, where N is the number of energygrps).

         I would really appreciate any help.
