fix eos/cv command¶
Syntax¶
fix ID group-ID eos/cv cv
- ID, group-ID are documented in fix command
- eos/cv = style name of this fix command
- cv = constant-volume heat capacity (energy/temperature units)
Examples¶
fix 1 all eos/cv 0.01
Description¶
Fix eos/cv applies a mesoparticle equation of state to relate the particle internal energy (u_i) to the particle internal temperature (dpdTheta_i). The eos/cv mesoparticle equation of state requires the constant-volume heat capacity, and is defined as follows:

where Cv is the constant-volume heat capacity, u_cond is the internal conductive energy, and u_mech is the internal mechanical energy. Note that alternative definitions of the mesoparticle equation of state are possible.
Restrictions¶
The fix eos/cv is only available if LAMMPS is built with the USER-DPD package.
