<p>I am running an NVT (Nose-Hoover thermostat) MD
calculation starting from a 30 ps NVE-equilibrated system. The input file for the NVE calculation and
the corresponding .ener output (for the final 10 ps) are attached. The NVE system appears to be
equilibrated. However, when I use the
NVE .restart file to start my NVT calculation, I have a constant increase in the
Cons Qty (input and .ener files attached). I am using the default Nose-Hoover thermostat and settings for v 5.1 (THERMOSTAT - Nose, REGION - global) I’m not sure if this is a result of the thermostat type or settings, or
something else. Any help is appreciated.</p>
