How to simulate the natural convection during solidification of PCM
 
Dear all,
I am simulating the solidification of paraffin wax in a enclosure, I want to see the natural convection driven by the buoyancy force and surface tension force. But when I add the wall adhesion and surface tension, divergence happens. What's the possible reason of it.

Thanks first.

Xavier
