# compute sph/t/atom command

## Syntax

    compute ID group-ID sph/t/atom

-   ID, group-ID are documented in [compute](compute) command
-   sph/t/atom = style name of this compute command

## Examples

``` LAMMPS
compute 1 all sph/t/atom
```

## Description

Define a computation that calculates the per-atom internal temperature
for each atom in a group.

The internal temperature is the ratio of internal energy over the heat
capacity associated with the internal degrees of freedom of an SPH
particles, i.e. a Smooth-Particle Hydrodynamics particle.

$$T_{int} = E_{int} / C_{V,int}$$

See [this PDF guide](PDF/SPH_LAMMPS_userguide.pdf)\_ to using SPH in
LAMMPS.

The value of the internal energy will be 0.0 for atoms not in the
specified compute group.

## Output info

This compute calculates a per-atom vector, which can be accessed by any
command that uses per-atom values from a compute as input. See the
[Howto output](Howto_output) page for an overview of LAMMPS output
options.

The per-atom vector values will be in temperature [units](units).

## Restrictions

This compute is part of the SPH package. It is only enabled if LAMMPS
was built with that package. See the [Build package](Build_package) page
for more info.
