In the pdf approach to turbulent combustion the molecular diffusion is to be modeled. In
recent years, several authors have employed the Curl model (Curl, 1963) for closure. A …

In application to turbulent reactive flows, both stochastic models and pdf methods require a
model of turbulent mixing. Models currently in use are due to Curl (1963), Dopazo (1979) …

A Monte Carlo method is presented which simulates the transport equations of joint
probability density functions (pdf's) in turbulent flows.(Finite-difference solutions of the …

The general coalescence-dispersion (C/D) closure provides phenomenological modeling of
turbulent molecular mixing. The models of Curl (AIChEJ, Vol. 9) and Dopazo and O'Brien …

A Monte Carlo method is presented which simulates the transport equations of joint
probability density functions (pdf's) in turbulent flows.(Finite-difference solutions of the …

It is shown that if partially premixed combustion is described in terms of a mixture fraction
and a progress variable, scalar dissipation terms appear in the transport equation for the …

Direct numerical simulations have been performed to study the mechanisms of mixing and
chemical reaction in a three-dimensional, homogeneous turbulent flow under the influence …

Progress in the theoretical prediction of turbulent combustion was advanced by the
development of calculation models and methods for turbulent non reactive flows, as well as …

The interaction between combustion and turbulence is reviewed from the point of view of the
modeller. Effects of combustion on the structure of turbulence and effects of turbulence on …

The mapping closure of Chen et al.[Phys. Rev. Lett., 63, 1989] is a transported probability
density function (PDF) method that has proven very efficient for modelling of turbulent mixing …
