How to implement Isothermal condition while solving for Eutectic solidification once eutectic temperature is reached?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I am trying to solve eutectic solidification using scheil's rule in comsol. How can I implement isothermal condition while solving for eutectic solidification once i reach eutectic temperature so that the remaining liquid solidifies isothermally releasing latent heat?

Has anyone solved that before using comsol. I searched through application gallery but the solidification problems I found were simpler ones using apparent heat capacity method. Does anyone know how to implement scheil's cooling and eutectic solidification in comsol? Preferably with source based method and using liquid fraction changes.

I did find it in Ansys Fluent package though. But do not want to switch to that.

Can anyone please help.
