neqsim-troubleshooting

neqsim-troubleshooting is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from equinor/neqsim. It costs 62 tokens per session (8,450 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A troubleshooting playbook for NeqSim simulations that fail to converge, return unexpected phases, throw exceptions, or produce zero or NaN values. It lists ordered checks and recovery options for common numerical and process-model problems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate flash non-convergence, recycle divergence, equipment errors, phase-identification problems, and numerical issues such as invalid or missing results.
Why use it?
It gives a structured way to diagnose simulation failures instead of changing settings at random.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

neqsim-troubleshooting scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

NeqSim Troubleshooting Playbook

Ranked recovery strategies for common failure modes. Try steps in order — stop when the issue is resolved.

Flash Non-Convergence

Symptom: TPflash() or other flash throws exception or returns wrong phase count.

Step Action Why It Helps
1 fluid.setMultiPhaseCheck(true) Enables detection of liquid-liquid splits and 3-phase regions
2 Try a different EOS: SystemPrEos instead of SystemSrkEos PR handles heavier components better near critical
3 Check if near critical point — if $T/T_c > 0.95$ and $P/P_c > 0.8$, use volume-translated EOS: SystemSrkEosvolcor Standard cubic EOS has largest errors near critical
4 Add fluid.init(0); fluid.init(1); before flash to force re-initialization Clears stale internal state from prior calculations
5 Slightly perturb T or P (1 K or 0.1 bar) and re-flash Exact phase boundary conditions can trap the solver
6 For mixtures with water + hydrocarbons, use CPA: SystemSrkCPAstatoil with mixing rule 10 SRK/PR cannot model hydrogen bonding — water phase behavior is wrong
7 Check component names against src/main/resources/data/COMP.csv Misspelled component names silently fail or load wrong parameters

NaN / Zero Enthalpy After Clone + Re-Flash

Symptom: A reservoir/well stream flashes fine at source, but after passing through WellFlow, PipeBeggsAndBrills, or an isenthalpic choke (or after clone() + re-flash) it returns NaN enthalpy — often surfacing as NaN compressor power or a non-finite separator duty downstream.

Step Action Why It Helps
1 Check fluid.getEnthalpy() is finite right after the source TPflash() + initProperties() Confirms the problem appears only after re-flash, not at the source
2 If the fluid uses hand-built addTBPfraction pseudo-components, rebuild it from a real PVTsim/E300 characterization (EclipseFluidReadWrite.read) and apply composition via setMolarComposition() Degenerate ideal-gas Cp coefficients on hand-built fractions lose enthalpy on re-flash; characterized fractions carry full Cp data
3 Enable fluid.setMultiPhaseCheck(true) before the choke A trapped/undetected third phase at low pressure can yield a non-finite mix enthalpy
4 For reservoirs, keep a clean clone of the source fluid for the well stream (bypass SimpleReservoir recombination, which can corrupt enthalpy) Recombined reservoir fluids can carry inconsistent enthalpy state

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

neqsim-troubleshooting is a skill published in the GitHub repository equinor/neqsim (156 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 8,450 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
