The positive potential I have got here, is before the "solvate with water
step". I don't have sol molecules in my .top file, however I see sol molecules in
system.gro . I visualized system_inflated.gro , I don't see any water molecules.
Now, I'm confused if this potential energy of a system with sol molecules or
these are just droplets as you said?
Your results are fine. InflateGRO removes water molecules (as stated in its
documentation). You should only be concerned if the potential energy of the
final system (with water and ions, after all the rounds of shrinking are done)
is positive. The energies of these intermediate steps mean very little.
