Hi there! When I import the RES and particle PVD files into ParaView 5.13.3, the particles appear outside the container boundary.Also, the size ratio between the particles and the container doesn’t seem right . However, the same VTK files display correctly in the MFiX VTK viewer(Shown in screenshots). Could anyone kindly provide some guidance or suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Thank you in advance!

I haven’t looked at your file but I think the paraview reader assumes xmin, ymin and z_min are all zero. I recommend using the vtk files for both gas and particle data. You can also translate the RES data in Paraview.

Thank you for your reply! I will dig into Paraview software
