The transport equation for the joint probability density function of velocity and scalars is
shown to provide a good basis for modeling turbulent reactive flows. As in the equation for …

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 formulation of a closed set of averaged equations to describe a turbulent reacting flow is
hindered by highly nonlinear relations between instantaneous quantities. This problem is …

The aim of the methods described is to calculate the properties of turbulent reactive flow
fields. At each point in the flow field, a complete statistical description of the state of the fluid …

A closed model equation is derived which describes the evolution of the single-point, joint
probability density function of a reacting scalar and its gradient in a turbulent advection field …

Transport and mixing of diffusive scalars in turbulent flows are simulated computationally
based on a novel representation of the temporal evolution along a transverse line moving …

There is current interest in being able to account for the presence of fluctuations when
calculating velocity, temperature, and composition distributions in turbulent flow fields with …

In this paper we present a computationally viable scheme to account for chemical reaction in
turbulent flows. The multivariate a· pdf model for multiple scalar nuxing (Girimaji 1991 …

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) …

Chemically reactive turbulent flows are difficult to predict for the simple reason that neither
turbulent transport nor chemical kinetics, the two important phenomena which form their …
