      For granular flows, enable the Packed Bed option if you want to freeze the velocity field for the granular phase. Note that when you select the packed bed option for a phase, you should also use the fixed velocity option with a value of zero for all velocity components for all interior cell zones for that phase. Please see attached video to see how to fix velocity to zero. Keywords: granular packed bed
