<div dir="ltr">Dear C2PK experts,<div><br></div><div>I am trying to do constraint MD calculation for the purpose of PMF calculation. I used the ENSEMBLE as LANGEVIN and switched on the Lagrange Multiplier. Since my system has Zn atom, I used MOLOPT basis sets for all atoms (Zn, O, and H). First I performed few steps of geometry optimization to obviate bad contacts. But the problem is temperature of the system increased too much and calculation is very slow. I changed different PRECONDITIONERs too but does not help. I assume that something is going really bad in the input file.</div><div><br></div><div>Can anyone correct me where I am going wrong? </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you in advance.</div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely, </div><div>Bharat</div><div><br></div><div>INPUT:</div><div><div>@SET CURR_I  01</div><div><br></div><div>@SET REPLICA  001</div><div>!@SET SEED     2000</div><div><br></div><div>&GLOBAL</div><div>  PROGRAM_NAME                 CP2K</div><div>  PROJECT_NAME                 Zn-31H2O_${REPLICA}_${CURR_I}</div><div>   RUN_TYPE                     MD</div><div>!  SEED                         ${SEED}</div><div>  PREFERRED_FFT_LIBRARY        FFTW</div><div>  PRINT_LEVEL                  LOW</div><div>  SAVE_MEM</div><div>&END GLOBAL</div><div>&FORCE_EVAL</div><div>  METHOD QS</div><div><br></div><div>  &DFT</div><div>    BASIS_SET_FILE_NAME        ./BASIS_MOLOPT</div><div>    POTENTIAL_FILE_NAME        ./POTENTIAL</div><div>     CHARGE                     2</div><div>#    MULTIPLICITY               1</div><div><br></div><div>    &SCF</div><div>      SCF_GUESS                ATOMIC</div><div>      EPS_SCF                  1.0E-6</div><div>      MAX_SCF                  50</div><div>      &OUTER_SCF</div><div>        MAX_SCF                10</div><div>      &END OUTER_SCF</div><div>      &OT</div><div># My scheme</div><div>        PRECONDITIONER         FULL_SINGLE_INVERSE</div><div>        MINIMIZER              DIIS</div><div>        N_DIIS                 7</div><div>      &END OT</div><div>      &PRINT</div><div>        &RESTART</div><div>          &EACH</div><div>            MD                 1</div><div>          &END EACH</div><div>        &END RESTART</div><div>        &RESTART_HISTORY       OFF</div><div>        &END RESTART_HISTORY</div><div>      &END PRINT</div><div>    &END SCF</div><div><br></div><div>    &QS</div><div>      METHOD                   GAPW</div><div># My scheme</div><div>      EPS_DEFAULT              1.0E-12</div><div>    &END QS</div><div>    &MGRID</div><div>      COMMENSURATE</div><div>      CUTOFF                   300</div><div>    &END MGRID</div><div>    &POISSON</div><div>      POISSON_SOLVER           MULTIPOLE</div><div>      PERIODIC                 NONE</div><div>      &MULTIPOLE</div><div>         RCUT                  40</div><div>      &END MULTIPOLE</div><div>    &END POISSON</div><div><br></div><div>    &XC</div><div>      &XC_FUNCTIONAL           BLYP</div><div>      &END XC_FUNCTIONAL</div><div>      &XC_GRID</div><div>        XC_SMOOTH_RHO          NN10</div><div>        XC_DERIV               SPLINE2_SMOOTH</div><div>      &END XC_GRID</div><div>    &END XC</div><div><br></div><div>    &PRINT</div><div>      &E_DENSITY_CUBE</div><div>        &EACH</div><div>          MD                   20</div><div>        &END EACH</div><div>      &END E_DENSITY_CUBE</div><div>    &END PRINT</div><div>  &END DFT</div><div>  &SUBSYS</div><div>    &CELL</div><div>      ABC                      9.865 9.865 9.865</div><div>    &END CELL</div><div># basis set and pseudopotential START</div><div>    &KIND O</div><div>      BASIS_SET DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH-q6</div><div>      POTENTIAL GTH-BLYP-q6</div><div>    &END KIND</div><div>    &KIND H</div><div>      BASIS_SET DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH-q1</div><div>      POTENTIAL GTH-BLYP-q1</div><div>    &END KIND</div><div>     &KIND Zn</div><div>       BASIS_SET DZVP-MOLOPT-SR-GTH-q12</div><div>       POTENTIAL GTH-BLYP-q12</div><div>     &END KIND</div><div># basis set and pseudopotential END</div><div>    &COORD</div><div>  Zn         5.7424793053        5.7794839244        4.5947129958</div><div>  O         8.1467217278        4.6850039781        3.1371317724</div><div>  H         8.6190715739        3.7975262203        3.0436809498</div><div>  H         8.8834641536        5.2988681112        3.4025380140</div><div>  O        10.3950115644        6.0303774461        4.0310716263</div><div>  H        10.7901584379        5.2672666136        4.5352088693</div><div>  H        10.3495569218        6.7612577065        4.6892301032</div><div>  O         7.6704674012        3.8407666568        7.7762877652</div><div>  H         8.5229361417        3.3708133953        7.5345459917</div><div>  H         7.6044435245        3.9237085873        8.7514863491</div><div>  O         6.3073913259        5.7915461691        6.5866515381</div><div>  H         5.5936672631        5.9792325455        7.2414994267</div><div>  H         6.8603
