Hello NMAD Community,

I'm alchemically transforming K+ into Na+ in a water box using CHARMM36
force field. I got the free energy -23.40 Kcal/mol involved in this
transformation while in some of literatures they have shown 16.70
kcal/mol. What can be the reason of this difference ?
I appreciate your suggestions.

Best,
Amit
