A pneumatic conveying system is used to carry particles at the exit and re-enter them from the top. Here, we use a `periodic` boundary to simulate the action of the pneumatic conveyor system for circulating particles.

There is also another change with regard to `layeredSiloFilling`. The exit gate is opened after the filling phase of the silo (see `settings/geometryDict` for more details).
