We’re putting the final touches on our new badges platform. Badge issuance remains temporarily paused, but all completions are being recorded and will be fulfilled once the platform is live. Thank you for your patience.

Read how the model works, you may want a temperature dependent viscosity but don't worry too much about the "solid" part of the curve, just make sure the viscosity range covers the full temperature range you're modelling.
In VOF surface tension is set in the phase interaction panel, with the solidification & melting model there is no "solid", it's a liquid with some extra terms applied.
