The objective of this paper is to study the characteristic of a circular tube with a built-in arc belt on fluid flow and heat transfer in uniform wall temperature flows. Numerical simulations for hydrodynamically laminar flow was direct ran at Re between 600 and 1800. Preliminary results on velocity and temperature statistics for uniform wall temperature show that, arc belt can swirl the pipe fluid, so that the fluid at the center of the tube and the fluid of the boundary layer of the wall can mix fully, and plays the role of enhanced heat transfer, but also significantly increases the resistance of the fluid and makes the resistance coefficient of the enhanced tube greater than smooth tube. The combination property PEC is all above 1.5.
