TIP4P/2005 model of water

The TIP4P/2005 model is a re-parameterisation of the original TIP4P potential for simulations of water. TIP4P/2005 is a rigid planar model, having a similar geometry to the Bernal and Fowler model.

Self-diffusion coefficient

The TIP4P/2005 potential has a self-diffusion coefficient, in bulk water at 298 K, of 0.21 Ų ps⁻¹ in a classical simulation of 216 water molecules (experimental value: 0.23 Ų ps⁻¹).
