The absorption of ions stuck at a certain number

Hello Dr. Dubbeldam,

I am trying to simulate the absorption of ions. One of the outputs are shown as below.

It shows that the number of ions stuck at 201 (or some other number in other outputs). Meanwhile the number of water atoms keep increasing at each step.

Is the RASPA stuck in simulating the ions here? Or it's working but I can't see from the number of ions?

Adsorption of ions is very difficult because the the molecule is charged. Net-charge is not allowed in a real periodic system.

Dear Dubbeldam,

Thanks a lot for your reply, I am trying to do the Adsorption of ions by introducing pseudo molecules which have extremely low bond connection between each other to insert the ions as pair into the system. In this way, the charge issue could be solved hopefully. Do you think this is reasonable?

Kind regards,

Dear Dubbeldam,

If this isn't reasonable, do you think it's possible for us to modify the source code to achieve our goal to simulate ions in condense system?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards,
Haolong
