Solid phase volume fraction decreases to zero

Hello Everyone,

I am using an Eulerian-Eulenrian multiphase formulation inside FLUENT.
The volume fraction of the gas phase plummets to zero. But it should stay at (almost) 1 of course throughout the simulation. (see image attached)
Any idea why that would be? Where can I check that the solid phase is indeed being solved for?
Thank you all very much
