Hey,
I want to simulate cyclone separators by DPMFoam.... I want to add 10000 particles during the investigation and I do not know what the difference between parcel and particle in the KinematicCloud is? i.e. I set 10000 in front of nParticles but I do not know what is suitable to set in front of ParcelPerSecond!!!!
The total time is 20s...

Please guide me.

as mush as i know parcel can be interpreted as set of particles , so if you want 10000 particles , put one in front of particle and 10000 in front of parcels
