Abstract The general case of a fully developed pipe flow of a suspension in a turbulent fluid with electrically charged particles or with significant gravity effect, or both, and for any inclination of the pipe with the direction of gravity, is formulated. Parameters defining the state of motion are: pipe flow Reynolds number, Froude number, electro diffusion number, diffusion response number, momentum transfer number and particle Knudsen number. Comparison with experimental results is made for both gas-solid and liquid-solid suspensions. It is shown that the gravity effect becomes significant in the case of large pipe diameters and large particle concentrations.
