solidification

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,
I would like to simulate solidification phenomena coupled to fluid mechanics but in COMSOL only apparent heat capacity is available in ready physics. Is it possible to use phase field, level set method and how to couple it to heat transfer? Is it possible to implement enthalpy-porosity in COMSOL using PDE or weak formulation? Could you give me some guidelines and documentation?
Thank you.

I am also trying to solve it using heat source method. What I did try is use simple heat transfer module and then manipulate the source term. You can also try using PDE interfaces in Mathematics section while selecting Physics.
