temp_modify command :h3
[Syntax:]
temp_modify temp-ID keyword value ... :pre
temp-ID = ID of temperature to modify :ulb,l
one or more keyword/value pairs may be listed :l
keyword = {extra} or {dynamic} :l
{extra} value = N
N = # of extra degrees of freedom to subtract
{dynamic} value = {yes} or {no}
yes/no = do or do not recompute the number of atoms contributing to the temperature :pre
:ule
[Examples:]
temp_modify mine extra 0
temp_modify mine dynamic yes :pre
[Description:]
Modify the parameters of a previously defined temperature method.
This can either be the default temperature defined by LAMMPS (ID =
{default}) or a user-defined temperature created by using the
"temperature"_temperature.html command.
The {extra} keyword refers to how many degrees-of-freedom are
subtracted (typically from 3N) as a normalizing factor in the
temperature computation. The default is 3 which is a correction
factor for an ensemble of velocities with zero total linear momentum.
The {dynamic} keyword determines whether the number of atoms N in the
temperature group is re-computed each time the temperature is
computed. By default, N is assumed to be constant. If you are adding
atoms to the system (see the "fix pour"_fix_pour.html or "fix
deposit"_fix_deposit.html commands) or expect atoms to be lost
(e.g. due to evaporation), then this option can be used to insure the
temperature is correctly normalized.
[Restrictions:] none
[Related commands:]
"temperature"_temperature.html
[Default:]
The option defaults are extra = 3 and dynamic = no.
