-:<math>A = \frac{1}{2} NE(0) - Nk_BT \ln \upsilon  - Nk_BT \ln \upsilon_f^*</math>
-where <math>A</math> is the [[Helmholtz energy function]], <math>N</math> is the number of cells, <math>E(0)</math> is the potential at the centre of the cell,
-<math>k_B</math> is the [[Boltzmann constant]], <math>T</math> is the [[temperature]], <math>\upsilon</math> is the volume of the cell, and <math>\upsilon_f^*</math> is the dimensionless reduced volume in configuration space.
