Simulating expansion of bed of solid particles in reactor

Hello!

I'm trying to simulate the expansion of a bed of spherical particles using the Turbulent Mixture Model (mm) module, but i'm having trouble defining the initial values. I've tried using both HR and SN slip models without any success. I've alse tried using the laminar mixture model module (since the Rep is low), without any results as well. The inlet stream is composed solely by the continuous phase. Any ideas on how to solve this (or any BC i'm forgetting to set up)?

Thanks in advance.
