Dear Justin:<br>
<br>
Thanks for your response.<br>
<br>
The reason I am doing this is that I wanted to test what the different electrostatics treatments will affect my results. So the heating up is normal by using a plain cut-off and the results can not be trusted, right?<br>

That is one of the known problems with using cut-off, yes.<br>

Dear Users:<br>

I was running a system by non-equilibrium MD using a plain<br>
Cut-off for the electrostatics:<br>

nstlist = 10<br>
ns_type = grid<br>
pbc = xyz<br>
coulombtype = Cut-off<br>
rlist = 0.8<br>
rcoulomb = 0.9<br>
rvdw = 0.8<br>
fourierspacing = 0.12<br>
ewald_rtol = 1e-5<br>
;nemd<br>

; Isotropic pressure coupling is now on<br>
Pcoupl = berendsen<br>
pcoupltype = isotropic<br>
;pc-grps = SOL<br>
tau_p = 1.0<br>

<br>
; Generate velocites is off at 300 K.<br>

<br>
I can not figure out where I did wrong, the temperature of the<br>
system is 303.54 after 5ns run ( the temperature turns to 303 in<br>
500ps). Thanks for the help in advance!<br>
<br>
<br>
Why are you using cutoff for coulombtype? It is the reason for the<br>
heating you are seeing:<br>
