The Drude model corresponds to the optimal choice of LJ parameters from the unscaled/vthole class of electrostatic models. The TIP3P95 and SWM4-NDP20 water models are used to solvate the CHARMM and Drude NMA models, respectively. Models are compared to experimental data.10–13,77,78,98–101 The diffusion constant is calculated from a simulation at 373 K from the asymptotic time dependence of the mean-square displacement of the molecules as a function of time, 〈Δr(t)2〉 → 6Dt. The experimental diffusion constants correspond to a linear interpolation of available temperature-dependent data101 to T = 373K and an estimate at T = 373K.100 The MD results include a correction for finite size effects in periodic boundary conditions, D = Dpbc + 2.837297kBT/(6πηL).102 The viscosity at T = 373 K is estimated from available temperature-dependent data, assuming η ∝ 1/T.101
