Hello DuMuX,

I started working with the mpnc model and I wonder how I can check for the 
phase presence. Just accessing the phase saturation does not seem to be a safe 
way since during newton iterations the value may differ from zero even though 
the phase is not present (am I right here?). Right now I check if the sum of 
all mole fractions in the phase of interest is equal to 1. This seems to work, 
however I wonder whether I should include a threshold (something like: 
sumMolefractions[phaseIdx] > 1 - eps_). Or is there a better way?

Thanks for your help
