<P><B>Description:</B>

</P>
|
|
<P>Define a computation that calculates the temperature of a group of
|
|
atoms, after subtracting out an imposed velocity on the system before
|
|
computing the kinetic energy. A compute of this style can be used by
|
|
any command that computes a temperature,
|
|
e.g. <A HREF = "thermo_modify.html">thermo_modify</A>, <A HREF = "fix_temp_rescale.html">fix
|
|
temp/rescale</A>, <A HREF = "fix_npt.html">fix npt</A>, etc.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The meaning of the arguments for this command is the same as for the
|
|
<A HREF = "velocity.html">velocity ramp</A> command which was presumably used to
|
|
impose the velocity.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The <I>units</I> keyword determines the meaning of the distance units used
|
|
for coordinates (c1,c2) and velocities (vlo,vhi). A <I>box</I> value
|
|
selects standard distance units as defined by the <A HREF = "units.html">units</A>
|
|
command, e.g. Angstroms for units = real or metal. A <I>lattice</I> value
|
|
means the distance units are in lattice spacings; e.g. velocity =
|
|
lattice spacings / tau. The <A HREF = "lattice.html">lattice</A> command must have
|
|
been previously used to define the lattice spacing.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>A 6-component kinetic energy tensor 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.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>The number of atoms contributing to the temperature is assumed to be
|
|
constant for the duration of the run; use the <I>dynamic</I> option of the
|
|
<A HREF = "compute_modify.html">compute_modify</A> command if this is not the case.
|
|
</P>
|
|
<P>This compute subtracts out degrees-of-freedom due to fixes that
|
|
constrain molecular motion, such as <A HREF = "fix_shake.html">fix shake</A> and
|
|
<A HREF = "fix_rigid.html">fix rigid</A>. 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
|
|
<I>extra</I> option of the <A HREF = "compute_modify.html">compute_modify</A> command.
