I use Custom Field Functions to do this. On the CFF Calculator type the density of the phase of interest multiplied its volume fraction multiplied X, Y or Z coordinate (x-cog, y-cog, z-cog). Next, report the volume integral of the functions. That numbers divided by the mass of the phase returns the cog coordinates of the phase.

Hope it helps...

Edi.
