Hi Xin Chen,
Awhile ago, people still reported this value when developing new water
models etc...
The first paper that comes to my mind is
Calibration and Testing of a Water Model for Simulation of the Molecular
Dynamics of Proteins and Nucleic Acids in Solution
Michael Levitt, Miriam Hirshberg, Ruth Sharon, Keith E. Laidig, and
Valerie Daggett
J. Phys. Chem. B; 1997; 101(25) pp 5051 - 5061; (Article) DOI:
10.1021/jp964020s
here the fluctuations in energy are used to calculate Cv.
Hope that can get you started.
