Dear All,

I am going to recreate the flow of a granulate material (approx. 0.5mm diameter particles) inside and under the hopper.
The hopper is approx. 150mm high.
I have access to the licensed Ansys software.

I did a quick research to find out, which Ansys software would be the most suitable for recreation of a granulate flow.
According to my research findings Fluent + Rocky software could do the job.

My question is:

1. Would you agree that Fluent and Rocky is the most appropriate Ansys software?
2. In case I cannot access Rocky, would Fluent alone be sufficient to mimic a granulate
flow?

I would be very grateful for your help.
