  Hi, I wanted to know if it is possible to model the melting deformation of plastic and flow of the molten plastic? Thank you so much for your help.

  Have a look at the solidification and melting model in Fluent. Likely you'll need Volume of Fluid (VOF) multiphase too. If it's a more complicated rheology model you may need to look into Polyflow.
