First of all, you should never do this.

http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Thermostats#What_Not_To_Do

tau_t               =  0.1      0.1  0.1
ref_t               =  300      300  300
; Energy monitoring
energygrps          =  Protein  W    NA+

but it gave me an error :
Fatal error:
Group NA+ not found in indexfile.
Maybe you have non-default goups in your .mdp file, while not using the '-n' option of grompp.
In that case use the '-n' option.
i dont have an indexfile ?

The error message is a bit misleading. I have changed it for the upcoming release. The group name "NA+" is incorrect in some way. The names you can specify in the .mdp file without creating an index group are called "default groups," a listing of which (for version 4.5) can be found at:

http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Default_Index_Groups

All [moleculetype] names are available by default. In your case you should probably just use "Protein Non-protein" as your tc-grps.
