compute temp/partial/cuda command :h3

[Syntax:]
|
|
|
|
compute ID group-ID temp/partial xflag yflag zflag :pre
|
|
|
|
ID, group-ID are documented in "compute"_compute.html command
|
|
temp/partial = style name of this compute command
|
|
xflag,yflag,zflag = 0/1 for whether to exclude/include this dimension :ul
|
|
|
|
[Examples:]
|
|
|
|
compute newT flow temp/partial 1 1 0 :pre
|
|
|
|
[Description:]
|
|
|
|
Define a computation that calculates the temperature of a group of
|
|
atoms, after excluding one or more velocity components. A compute of
|
|
this style can be used by any command that computes a temperature,
|
|
e.g. "thermo_modify"_thermo_modify.html, "fix
|
|
temp/rescale"_fix_temp_rescale.html, "fix npt"_fix_nh.html, etc.
|
|
|
|
The temperature is calculated by the formula KE = dim/2 N k T, where
|
|
KE = total kinetic energy of the group of atoms (sum of 1/2 m v^2),
|
|
dim = dimensionality of the simulation, N = number of atoms in the
|
|
group, k = Boltzmann constant, and T = temperature. The calculation
|
|
of KE excludes the x, y, or z dimensions if xflag, yflag, or zflag =
|
|
0. The dim parameter is adjusted to give the correct number of
|
|
degrees of freedom.
|
|
|
|
A kinetic energy tensor, stored as a 6-element vector, is also
|
|
calculated by this compute for use in the calculation of a pressure
|
|
tensor. The formula for the components of the tensor is the same as
|
|
the above formula, except that v^2 is replaced by vx*vy for the xy
|
|
component, etc. The 6 components of the vector are ordered xx, yy,
|
|
zz, xy, xz, yz.
|
|
|
|
The number of atoms contributing to the temperature is assumed to be
|
|
constant for the duration of the run; use the {dynamic} option of the
|
|
"compute_modify"_compute_modify.html command if this is not the case.
|
|
|
|
The removal of velocity components by this fix is essentially
|
|
computing the temperature after a "bias" has been removed from the
|
|
velocity of the atoms. If this compute is used with a fix command
|
|
that performs thermostatting then this bias will be subtracted from
|
|
each atom, thermostatting of the remaining thermal velocity will be
|
|
performed, and the bias will be added back in. Thermostatting fixes
|
|
that work in this way include "fix nvt"_fix_nh.html, "fix
|
|
temp/rescale"_fix_temp_rescale.html, "fix
|
|
temp/berendsen"_fix_temp_berendsen.html, and "fix
|
|
langevin"_fix_langevin.html.
|
|
|
|
This compute subtracts out degrees-of-freedom due to fixes that
|
|
constrain molecular motion, such as "fix shake"_fix_shake.html and
|
|
"fix rigid"_fix_rigid.html. This means the temperature of groups of
|
|
atoms that include these constraints will be computed correctly. If
|
|
needed, the subtracted degrees-of-freedom can be altered using the
|
|
{extra} option of the "compute_modify"_compute_modify.html command.
|
|
|
|
See "this howto section"_Section_howto.html#4_16 of the manual for a
|
|
discussion of different ways to compute temperature and perform
|
|
thermostatting.

|
Styles with a {cuda} suffix are functionally the same as the
|
|
corresponding style without the suffix. They have been optimized to
|
|
run faster, depending on your available hardware, as discussed in
|
|
"this section"_Section_accelerate.html of the manual. The accelerated
|
|
styles take the same arguments and should produce the same results,
|
|
except for round-off and precision issues.
|
|
|
|
These accelerated styles are part of the "user-cuda" package. They
|
|
are only enabled if LAMMPS was built with that package. See the
|
|
"Making LAMMPS"_Section_start.html#2_3 section for more info.
|
|
|
|
You can specify the accelerated styles explicitly in your input script
|
|
by including their suffix, or you can use the "-suffix command-line
|
|
switch"_Section_start.html#2_6 when you invoke LAMMPS, or you can use
|
|
the "suffix"_suffix.html command in your input script.
|
|
|
|
See "this section"_Section_accelerate.html of the manual for more
|
|
instructions on how to use the accelerated styles effectively.

[Output info:]
|
|
|
|
This compute calculates a global scalar (the temperature) and a global
|
|
vector of length 6 (KE tensor), which can be accessed by indices 1-6.
|
|
These values can be used by any command that uses global scalar or
|
|
vector values from a compute as input. See "this
|
|
section"_Section_howto.html#4_15 for an overview of LAMMPS output
|
|
options.
|
|
|
|
The scalar value calculated by this compute is "intensive". The
|
|
vector values are "extensive".
|
|
|
|
The scalar value will be in temperature "units"_units.html. The
|
|
vector values will be in energy "units"_units.html.
