Thanks a lot for your prompt responses. By using implicit solvent , I am
getting on 9 temperature values. I think this should work , I will try it
out. Also, i checked that when the no. of water molecules are reduced , the
no. of temp. values are also reduced. If I reduce the no. of water
molecules or reduce the size of box , will it help. As of now I am using
octahedron box.
