A two-dimensional numerical model for solving the Navier–Stokes equations was developed to investigate the local scour around a submarine pipeline with a spoiler. Both the suspended load and the bed load were considered in the present numerical model. The focus of the present study is to investigate the effects of the spoiler length on the hydrodynamic forces on the pipeline and the spoiler as well as the local scour around the submarine pipeline. The corresponding numerical results show that the mean drag coefficients of the pipeline and the spoiler increase with the increase of the spoiler length. As for the mean lift coefficient, a general decreasing trend with the increasing spoiler length is observed for the pipeline. However, the mean lift coefficient of the spoiler first increases and then decreases with the increasing spoiler length. In addition, it is found that a larger spoiler length leads to a deeper scour depth, and an empirical equation was proposed for predicting the non-dimensional scour depth of submarine pipelines with non-dimensional spoiler length based on the numerical results.
