We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Where is density change due to solidification/melting covered in the Bousinesq maths? 

If you're comparing a specific location, are you seeing instant melting at that point or are conduction/convection effects in either Fluent or the experiment likely to create differences in the result.  I tend not to assume either experiment or CFD results are wrong, however I regularly see that there are differences in what is modelled that explain why the results don't match.Â
