How may I get IFV by using Darcy's Law module?

Dear Comsol users, I'm a M.Sc Engineering student and I'm working for my final dissertation on hyperthermia in solid tumors, combined with smart drug release and I have been using Comsol just for a few weeks now so I'm not that expert with it. I'm trying to build a model to simulate and to predict the behaviour of thermosensitive liposomes when injected at bolus inside the tumor at a certain temperature. I'm using a porous media model to simulate the biological tissue, although I came up with a problem. I'm trying to use Darcy's law to get the interstitial fluid pressure and velocity fields inside the tissue in order to find out how TSLs diffuse in the porous matrix, the problem is that Darcy's law module just gives me back pressure as a dependent variable but it doesn't let me know anything about velocity field, it looks weird to me because the continuity equation needs velocity. Is there a way to get velocity field by using this module or I have to use someone else? Thanks a lot in advance.
