abstract = {The enthalpy-porosity technique is commonly used for modeling phase change problems  with natural convection. In most applications however, this technique is restricted to equal
thermophysical properties of solid and liquid phases. In this paper, an enhanced formulation
based on the enthalpy-porosity method is proposed where the different thermophysical properties 
between the two phases can be easily taken into account. Accurate temporal and spatial
discretizations are also presented for solving the proposed formulation. Numerical simulations
on pure gallium melting and a comparison between experimental and numerical results for water
solidification are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed model and numerical
methodology.},
