NGY = [integer]
Default: NGY = set in accordance with PREC and ENCUT 

Description: NGY sets the number of grid points in the FFT grid along the second lattice vector.


By default NGY is set in accordance with the requested "precision" mode (PREC) and the plane wave kinetic energy cutoff ENCUT:

PREC NGY
Normal 3/2×
Single (VASP.5) 3/2×
Single (VASP.6)
SingleN (VASP.6) 3/2×
Accurate
Low 3/2×
Medium 3/2×
High

where

with =ENCUT.

Alternatively, NGY can be set to a specific value in the INCAR file.
