natural-convecion with phase-change

I think phase-change model with natural-convection dose not work in Fluent5.0. please check that.

If my question is rude, I apologize that. I just wanted to know whether phase-change model with natural-convection could be solved with Fluent5.0. I tried to solve solidification with natural convection. But in solid region there were flows. So I checked Fluent 4.5 structured solver which contains porocity or morphology constant. And It worked. I could not find any parameter to control porocity in Fluent 5.0. Is it my mistake?
