To investigate the two-way interaction between solid particles and fluid turbulence, a homogeneous flow field including more than 2000 spherical particles was directly simulated. Since flow around each particle is approximately resolved, no models were used for particle motion or fluid turbulence. A particle settles under gravity with the Reynolds number ranging from 50 to 300, based on diameter and slip velocity. When particle clusters are formed due to the wake attraction, the average settling velocity increases. Thus particular attention was focused on the distribution of particles. The influence of Reynolds number and loading ratio are assessed. It is found that the rotation of particle dominates the cluster dynamics.
