The stl export is if you need to mesh the particles in fluent. If you want to run the coupled simulation, you don't have to import the stl of the packed bed into Rocky. If you have the particle bed in Rocky (out of particles), the coupling will take care of making the Lagrangian -> Eulerian mapping through one of the mapping algorithms chosen.
