Hi,

I want to know that the following parameters are for npt or nvt
equilibration :-

dielectric 1.0
coordinates ../common/complex_ionized.pdb

outputEnergies 1000
binaryoutput no
DCDFreq 1000
restartFreq 1000
binCoordinates ./complex_min.restart.coor
binaryrestart yes
structure ../common/complex_ionized.psf
paraTypeCharmm on
parameters ../common/par_all27_prot_na.prm
exclude scaled1-4
1-4scaling 1.0
switching on
switchdist 8.0
cutoff 12.0
pairlistdist 13.5
margin 2.0
stepspercycle 20
extendedSystem ./complex_min.xsc
outputname equilibrated

berendsenPressureTarget 1.01325 # atmospheric pressure
berendsenPressureCompressibility 4.57e-5 # liquid water
berendsenPressureRelaxationTime 100.0
berendsenPressureFreq 10

temperature 0.5 # starting at 0.5 K
reassignFreq 100
reassignIncr 0.5
reassignHold 300 # target T: 300 K

numsteps 100000

If its for npt, what changes are needed to make it for nvt or vice versa??
