Strangely, the temperature fluctuation is very large (see attached "WATER-1.ener" file). I know a little bit temperature fluctuation is acceptable, but mine is really large. This is the first time I am trying CP2K for doing AIMD and not familiar with structure of the input file. Maybe something is wrong or missing in the input file (see attached "water.inp" file). I should say I've already done this calculation with ORCA for non-periodic water system. Now, I want to see the effect of periodicity with cp2k. Any help would greatly appropriated.
