  Hi For my project I need to simulate the geometry of random packed bed with cubic particle,so that there isn't any overlap between the particles. so I want to know if this simulation is possible in Ansys?
  and which part should I use?
  I look forward to your answer.

  The particle models in Fluent and CFX assume they're spherical, or near enough spherical. But the question then is, what are you trying to find out? Pressure drop, how the packing packs?
