2D fluidized bed mesh and definition files

Hi all,
I am starting trying to simulate a 2D fluidized bed
with CFX. I was wondering if anybody have
a basic *.gtm and *.cfx regarding a
2D gas solid fluidized bed.
Thanks a lot,
Alex

maybe you need to start and do something with your problem and then show us; this way usualy people do help

Hi George,
Thanks for the reply.
My question is not a state of art issue. As fluidized bed
have been simulated during the last two decades by eulerian-eulerian and eulerian-langragian CFD models. Even there is a tutorial for the
CFX co-brother FLUENT. I just want to speed up the
simulation process as I know that certainly fluidized bed
simulations with CFX is a well developed subject.
Any user willing for sharing that knowledge is very
very welcome.
Alex

I'm not that sure about the "well developed subject"

but I can tell you they are quite hard simulations to perform.
