  the sum of non-bond interaction = LJ-(SR) + LJ-(LR) + Coulomb-(SR) +

   But the experimental value of he vaporation enthalpy = 50.3 Kj/mol
I have no ideal that why they have so much different. Now I don't know 
how to solve it.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.
 


These are totals for the intermolecular energy of the system.  I'm 
guessing you didn't use "-nmol 512" to calculate these results?


And then subtract the gas-phase energy (with com removed) and add kT.

[gmx-users] how to calculate the vaporation enthalpy of pure small organic compound

2009-10-23 Thread Jinyao Wang
 Hi gmx-users,
I want to  calcualted the the vaporation enthalpy of benzaldehyde 
 I think that the the vaporation enthalpy is the sum of non-bond interacion 
among the benzaldehyde molecule.
So I made a NPT system simulation including 512 benzaldehyde molecule.  
The following is the intermolecule nonbond interaction using the g_energy.  

 LJ-(SR)= -21128.7 Kj/mol
 LJ-(LR)= -889.855 Kj/mol
 Coulomb-(SR)= -3884.6 Kj/mol
 Coul.-recip = -2261.51 Kj/mol
  the sum of non-bond interaction = LJ-(SR) + LJ-(LR) + Coulomb-(SR) + 
Coul.-recip = 28164.665 Kj/mol
   But the experimental value of he vaporation enthalpy = 50.3 Kj/mol
I have no ideal that why they have so much different. Now I don't know how to 
solve it.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
