Density (ρ) and heat of vaporization (ΔHvap) of liquid methanol calculated from MD simulations (T = 25 °C and p = 1 atm) using different optimized polarizable force fields. The optimized vdW parameters were determined from according to the Eq (1) without δ and with δ offset. For comparison, the results from the AMOEBA force field (amoeba09.prm) are given. The MD results were averaged from 3 simulations of 2.5 ns.
