Yes, i try to get a surface tension of 69 dyn, but i can only get 65 at present.
 
Yes, i tried some arbitrary choices. I do not know what is the correct .mdp for 
me to get a surface tension of 69. May be for this version, it does not include 
this function
 
Thanks for your kind message. But i still does not how to figure it out.
