A non-isothermal turbulent flow with the dispersed phase is modelled using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach for fluid, one-way coupled with the equations of point-particle evolution. The channel is heated at both walls and isoflux boundary conditions are applied for fluid. Particle velocity and thermal statistics are computed. Of particular interest are the r.m.s. profiles and the probability density function of particle temperature in the near-wall region. We compare our findings with available reference data for particle-laden, heated channel flow. Moreover, an open issue in LES is the influence of non-resolved (residual) scales of fluid velocity and temperature fields on particles. In the present contribution, we apply a stochastic model for subfilter fluid velocity at the particle positions that aims at reconstructing the effects of the smallest scales of turbulence on particle dynamics. We analyse the impact of this model on particle thermal statistics.
