Hi David,

I used to apply NPT to fix the density, how can I get the denisty using NVT?

You turn off P coupling and fix the right density by scaling using editconf.

        Hello,

        I am trying to obtain the density for my system that is exactly
        identical to experimental value but whatever pressure I apply
        density is
        still off by 3%.
        Is this issue common?

    Yes, force fields are not perfect.
    How about running NVT at the experimental density and measuring the
    pressure?
