Dear Prof. Dubbeldam and RASPA community,

I would like to calculate the adsorption isotherm for hydrogen at 77K on IRMOF-1. The absolute adsorption uptake of the RASPA results showed higher values, almost two times more at high pressures (i.e., 100 bar) compared to the experimental results and GCMC calculations in the literature. I am sure that the force-field interactions taken are accurate. The forcefield, pseduoatoms, molecule files, simulation.input used in my RASPA calculations are given below. The IRMOF-1 cif file was used from RASPA software (i.e., raspa/structures/mofs/cif/IRMOF-1.cif). Can you please go through the input files and let me know incase any issues?

Hi,

I am getting the following warning while calculating the enthalpy of the adsorption in ZIF-8.

WARNING: THE SYSTEM HAS A NET CHARGE
WARNING: THERE ARE ATOM-PAIRS WITH NO VDW INTERACTION Zn1-H2 Zn1-N1 Zn1-H3A Zn1-H3B Zn1-H3C C1-H2 C1-N1 C1-H3A C1-H3B C1-H3C C2-H2 C2-N1 C2-H3A C2-H3B C2-H3C C3-H2 C3-N1 C3-H3A C3-H3B C3-H3C C_co2-H2 C_co2-N1 C_co2-H3A C_co2-H3B C_co2-H3C O_co2-H2 O_co2-N1 O_co2-H3A O_co2-H3B O_co2-H3C H2-Zn1 H2-C1 H2-C2 H2-C3 H2-C_co2 H2-O_co2 H2-N1 H2-H3A H2-H3B H2-H3C N1-Zn1 N1-C1 N1-C2 N1-C3 N1-C_co2 N1-O_co2 N1-H2 N1-H3A N1-H3B N1-H3C  (maximum 50 interactions shown)

The simulation.input file is attached. What could be the reason behind the warning, and would it affect the final solution ?

Thank you.

Thanks for the reply,

I compared with the experiments and i want to make sure my force fields and input file are correct because in the warnings of each simulation it shows max 50 interactions are missing which are Eg: Zn_H_O, C1_C2_Zn etc.

Near 77K in the literature mentioned that quantum effects are considered to get accurate experimental results. Is it possible to include that in raspa?

General / Issue with the forcefield

Hi Prof. Dubbeldam,

I'm using raspa for hydrogen adsorption simulation in ZIF-8, I had edited the input file and  force field file of MOF-5 given in the examples for the using ZIF-8 (lennard jones parameters are also changed according to ZIF-8) as adsorbate . After running the simulation i got high adsorption capacities of hydrogen than reported in literature, it happened for 77K and 300K. I would like to know what might be the problem in this simulation.
