[Pw_forum] vc-md temperature increases

2011-12-05 Thread Lily Anh
Hi all, I am running a 'vc-md' calculation with PW.X in QE v4.1.1. The system is bcc-Fe supercell of 16 atoms. The target temperature were set to 600 K in the input file while the temperature goes up all the way to more than 1000 K. I tried with a much larger supercell (128 atoms), this problem
