Which multiphase model to use?

I want to simulate dirty water (sand + water) through a pipe. Sand and water are completely mixed before entering the pipe.

Regards

I think the VOF model is Ok for your work because Mixture model is deference from your work. I suggest that use VoF model and set volume fraction of sand is equal to 0.5.
