No where it is said that \eta_{s} can't be set to 0. It is certainly more stable numerically to have a non zero value, but it can be set to 0. Which is what was done in the multimode DCPP or...

Ok that might be right, it's been a long time I have not used these techniques. But it might also be worth checking as I have seen a presentation where the solvent viscosity was not mentionned on...
