Dear experts, I am trying to do a MD run for stack of hexane molecules. The density of hexane (Mw 86 g/mol) is about 1 g/cm^3.
Density (g/cm3) Mw hexane (g/mol) NO.molecuels/cm3 NO./nm3 1 86 1/86*6.023E23=7.0E+21 7 using genconf I generated 1000 molecules in 160 nm^3 which gives roughly 1000/160=6 molecuels per nm^3. ( I hope I am doing this calculation properly) 1-I did MD run and below energy values are listed. Please let me know if these figures are reasonable. And more importantly, it would be great if you could introduce some stuff to read so that I am able to interpret the MD results by myself! (especially the energy values). I do not find these info in tutorials and manual. For my hydrocarbon system how I can judge if the results are acceptable or something is wrong in sys. 2- Since I intend to calculate interaction parameters from MD, I think should look more carefully at LJ and coulomb energy terms (non-bonded). Am I right? 3- In md parameter file I set T=300K but in this list I see a little deviation from set value (308K). Why is this happening? I appreciate your help :) Statistics over 5001 steps [ 0.0000 thru 10.0000 ps ], 29 data sets The term 'Cons. rmsd ()' is averaged over 501 frames All other averages are exact over 5001 steps Energy Average RMSD Fluct.
