sdie

Note

Some versions of this command have been ported to the new APBS syntax (see YAML- and JSON-format input files):

  • Finite difference Poisson-Boltzmann calculations: see FiniteDifference.solvent_dielectric() for more information.

Todo

port for other calculation types

Specify the dielectric constant of the solvent. The syntax is:

sdie {diel}

where diel is a floating point number representing the solvent dielectric constant (unitless). This number must be \(\ge 1\). Bulk water at biologically-relevant temperatures is usually modeled with a dielectric constant of 78-80.
