I have performed experiments in a cylindrical reacting char bed were a mixture of gases (CO2, H2O and N2) are injected in the top and passes through the reacting bed. Measurements of pressure drop, gas composition (longitudinal direction) and temperature (radial and longitudinal directions) were made. The char bed height was kept to constant cm due to continuous feeding.

I am trying to model the experiment above using Eulerian (granular > fixed bed). I want to be able to calculate:
* Pressure Drop
* Volume Fraction
* Species production and destruction
* Temperature
* Velocity

Does Fluent 12 have the capability of solving this on its on, or UDF's are required?
Do you have any suggestions?

P.S.: I want to model this in steady state
