Re: how to set temperature in input file?

Hi,

 $FORCE
   TEMP   = an array of up to ten temperatures at which the
            thermochemistry should be printed out.  The
            default is a single temperature, 298.15 K.  To
             use absolute zero, input 0.001 degrees.

Note this is for ideal gas, harmonic vibrations/rigid
rotor approximation! You can also look at documentation of
$DRC group for Born-Oppenheimer dynamics.

regards,
Alex Granoovsky

>I want to calculate the energy of ethylene carbonate molecule (melting point = 36 degree celsius) at T=0K and T=400K. But I dont know how to set these temperature parameters in input file. I tried to find clues in manual and discussion forum previous answers, but I am unable to find. Please tell me how to set parameter for temperature in input file?
