Residuals of the static equations:

Equation number 1 : -10.4446  
Equation number 2 : 3.8  
Equation number 3 : 1.6955  
Equation number 4 : Inf  
Equation number 5 : 0.86647  
Equation number 6 : -0.31565  
Equation number 7 : 0  
Equation number 8 : Inf  
Equation number 9 : -0.95  
Equation number 10 : 2.8183

STEADY: The Jacobian contains Inf or NaN. The problem arises from:

STEADY: Derivative of Equation 4 with respect to Variable y (initial value of y: 5000)  
STEADY: Derivative of Equation 8 with respect to Variable y (initial value of y: 5000)

STEADY: The problem most often occurs, because a variable with  
STEADY: exponent smaller than 1 has been initialized to 0. Taking the derivative  
STEADY: and evaluating it at the steady state then results in a division by 0.
