Ok thank you. Then I will try to implement a constant temperature with a piecewise linear density definition up to the beginning of the melting range. 

The geometry contains a vacuum regime that is modeled as air with a viscosity of 1000 (proved to increase robustness) and patched to 1 Pa pressure. Is that a valid approach?
