Hi everyone,

I'm running a Lagrangian Multiphase DEM simulation of a single solid phase mixed in water. My solid phase is a sphere-filled composite particle in the shape of a spheroid:

I created an injector for my solid phase at the middle inlet of my geometry (shown in the bottom image) so that the phase is moving in the positive z-direction. When I run the simulation, it seems that the individual spheres in my sphere-filled composite particle model are dispersed in the XY-plane like so (I've counted up the spheres and they always match the number of spheres I used for the composite particle, no matter what I set that number to). Has anyone seen anything like this before?
