The polynomials used in the Tian parameterization for reactive two phase flow break down above certain pressures for each lithology, and the maximum bound water content becomes infinite. This PR ensures that the polynomial does not break down above these pressures by setting the pressure equal to the pressure just before the break down. An example of how this fix impacts the PT space for gabbro is shown below.
The python script that was used to determine these cutoff pressures can be found in the zip below.
