[CP2K:8724] Dispersion energy in different versions of CP2K

[hut... at chem.uzh.ch]

Hi

version 2.6 had a major bug fix for C9 terms in periodic systems.
Besides that only refactoring of the code for SMP parallelism has been
done. Switching off the C9 term should give you a hint on the source
of the error.

regards

Subject: [CP2K:8724] Dispersion energy in different versions of CP2K

Hello,
I want to compare calculations done with different (admittedly old) versions of CP2K.I used an identical input file (attached) for CP2K versions 3.0 and 2.5.1.The simulations are MD runs using the PBE functional with the D3 dispersion correction, the TZV2P basis set and GTH pseudo-potentials.The initial SCF (before taking even one MD step) converges fine and all energy components (Core, Hartree and XC) are very similar between the different versions.The only difference which is significant is dispersion energy term. which is -0.20577238097721 Hartree in the 2.5.1 version and -0.20735192667451 in the 3.0 version.This is despite the fact that I used the exact same parameter file (dftd3.dat attached) for both calculations.I have also attached the relevant parts of the output files.
I would really appreciate your help in understanding the origin of the difference.Thanks,
Barak
