You can track particle using Polyflow using the module called Polystat.

More information can be found here:

There are several examples about the use of this module in the example manual:

Example 50: The Rectangular Cavity

Example 51: Coextrusion of Polymers in a Square Channel

Example 52: Flat Die

Example 46: Periodic Flow Through a Kenics Mixer

Example 37: Mixer 2-D

Example 65: Adaptive Meshing for Moving Parts; Mixer 2-D

Example 91: Dispersion

Example 116: Distributive Mixing Analysis in the Mixer GK7N

I would focus on example 46 as it is like your application.

In case you do not know, here is the link to find and use the Polyflow Example manual:
