Nanofluid flow by using single-phase approach

Hello. I am new at COMSOL and I need help about multiphase flow.
I want to model a nanofluid flow through a pipe. The fluid consists of dispersed solid particles and base liquid. I do not want to model it with two-phase approach (e.g. eulerian-eulerian or mixture). I want to model it by single-phase approach. Please do not be confused. The flow has dispersed particles and base liquid but the approach should be single-phase approach.
How do I do that? Which library should I use?
Another question is I do not want to model spherical particles. I want to model other geometries as well. How do I do that too? By changing the geometry just effects the thermal conductivity of the fluid so maybe I can still use spherical particles but different thermal conductivity. Because i cannot think another way to do that.
Thanks
