how should this work?
the dcd file only stores atom coordinates
and the psf file only has the topology.

you cannot show what is not there.
at best, you could do a crude approximation by computing
the difference of atom coordinates between two subsequent
frames, dividing it by the time that has passed, square it, and
multiply by the half the mass to get the per atom kinetic energy.
cheers,
