Dear lammps-users and developers

The simulation box has three groups: low group, flow group and high group as followed. The lower group and upper group are in NVT ensemble with constant temperature.
The upper group has the velocity vx=1.0 along the x direction, and The lower group has the velocity vx=-1.0 along the x direction . Thus the flow group is in shear flow.

The flow group is in NVE ensemble. The flow group is divided into divided into 15 lays, which is used for the statistical calculation of velocity and temperature. The lays have difficult stream velocity.

┌────┐
NVTupper group, T_2=cont, vx=1.0
├────┤
NVEflow group
├────┤
NVTlower group, T_1=cont, vx=-1.0
└────┘
The every lay of the flow group has difficult stream velocity. The temp/profile and temp/com command are used to subtract out the effect of the stream velocity to the temperature calculation as followed. However, I failed.

You’re not asking a very clear or narrow question. Just saying
I’m trying to do something complicated and it’s not working, isn’t
very illuminating. I would focus on trying to get separate
parts of your complicated problem working one at a time.
