Dear Sir£¬
	I am doing a  NVT simulation for (31H2O + 1HCl) at 300K. 
    I started from a equilibrated configuration using classical md. Then I  relaxed the configuration using velocity rescaling for 1 ps , and then quenched the electrons to the BO surface for 50 steps. The values after quenching are:
        NFI    EKINC   TEMPP           EKS      ECLASSIC          EHAM         DIS    TCP
         50  0.02529   317.8    -490.88163    -490.73972    -490.71443   0.103E+00    9.45

    Finally, in this step, I do the simulation using Nose-Hoover chain thermostat. But the EKINC becomes ZERO,
and TEMPP values during  are quite unreasonable. And it terminated after 20 steps ! What's wrong in my input file? Can you give some suggestions? Thank you.(The input file and the output file of this step is listed following.)
