[gmx-users] perfluorohexane pdb... again

Hi Marcelo
your initial box is right, (4.72 nm)^3 = 105.15404e-27 m^3
500 hexane molecules = 500/(6.02e23)*86.16e-3 kg
the density of your initial system = 680.200377454 kg m^-3

The pdb file you sent contained two different structures (I just
realized about this) the first one is in a box of the right dimensions
but the second one, I guess the final frame, is in a much larger box
(8.1315 nm each edge). Your SA at 1000 K and at constant pressure
expands the system a lot and you are not simulating long enough at 298 K
to go back to the right density, that's all.

Cheers,

Ángel.
