Continuous Casting

I am modelling the continuous casting of Aluminium (Al12Si alloy to be precise). I have adopted the geometry of the continuous casting model from model library. Though the library already has an extensive model, I want to approach it in a different way.
Their model is based on non-isothermal flow whereas I want to use Heat transfer in fluids and have accordingly used parameters. The aim of the simulation is to show the most likely solidification behavior of the alloy post the casting process.
I would be glad if I got some guidelines to go about building my model further like making changes in the study section, in the boundary equations and in the mesh sequence in order to show the liquid to solid phase transition as well as depict the eutectic point clearly in the model.
