Hi, all. How to define the viscosity of a phase change material during the solidification?
1. define pcm as a liquid, and then use UDF to set the viscosity quite large(50000, for example)when the temperature is under the solidus temperature, or
2.define the liquid state and solid state separately.

which or what method is doable for this problem?
