[gmx-users] Choosing water molecules and box type and dimensions

[abhijit Kayal]

you can look the following paper for the properties of different water
models.

Simulating water with rigid non-polarizable models: a general perspective
Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2011, 13, 19663–19688.

In this paper they compare all the water models based on their different
thermodynamics and
dynamical properties. It tuns out TIP4P/2005 water model is the best one
which can mimic the
bulk water most closely.
