A numerical study was performed to investigate the effects of heating and buoyancy on the turbulent structures and transport in turbulent pipe flow. Isoflux wall boundary conditions with low and high heating were imposed. The compressible filtered Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a second order accurate finite volume method. Low Mach number preconditioning was used to enable the compressible code to work efficiently at low Mach numbers. A dynamic subgrid-scale stress model accounted for the subgrid-scale turbulence. The results showed that strong heating caused distortions of the flow structures resulting in reduction of turbulent intensities, shear stresses, and turbulent heat flux, particularly near the wall. The effect of heating was to raise the mean streamwise velocity in the central region and reduce the velocity near the wall resulting in velocity distributions that resembled laminar profiles for the high heating case.

Migration of particles in pipe flow is commonly seen in offshore engineering, such as vertical transport of ores in deep sea mining. As the basis of the investigation on fluid-particle two-phase flow, the interaction of two spheres in upward pipe flow is studied by direct numerical simulations in this paper. The pipe flow is set as Poiseuille flow; the Reynolds number is no more than 1250. The dynamic responses of the spheres and the flow pattern are analyzed at different flow velocity. When compared to the sedimentation of two spheres in quiescent flow, the trailing sphere in Poiseuille flow will never surpass the leading one in Poiseuille flow. As the flow velocity increases in the pipe, the spheres are easier to separate after collision. When the flow velocity exceeds a critical value, the spheres will never collide.
