Karol Brzezinski proposed the following answer:
Hi Soheil,

I recommend using the makeCloud() [1] method which allows you to create
packing with a prescribed size distribution (see the example [2[).
Please note to set distributeMass=True in your case.

This method creates loose packing, so you need to create 'higher'
packing, and allow the particles to fall under gravity.

Cheers,
Karol
