1. Just use g_energy and compute potential energy. Then proceed by definition of Hvap. > Unfortunately, I am still unclear about energy units. :( > Yes, only when I use > g_energy -f ener.edr -o energy.xvg -nmol 8 I get pretty similar values > as you obtained (around 2200 KJ/molecule !? ) but then units should be > energy per molecule. I am confused because Before you had said units are per > mole. Without using -nmol 8 option total energy is around 20,000 (apparently > g_energy by default gives KJ/mole) 2. These are PER MOLE. Avogadro number is already included. Also see manual please. > Another reason I am confused is because > > g_energy -f ener.edr -o energy.xvg according to manual chapter 2 should give > energies in KJ/mol and not system.

"g_energy -nmol XXX" gives PER MOLE of the molecules (XXX is the number of these molecules in system). Enjoy the polymer!
