“…Since its original development, LEM has been used extensively to study various aspects of turbulent mixing and combustion processes. Applications to date include analyses of turbulent reacting shear flows (Kerstein, 1989), turbulent diffusion flames (Kerstein, 1990), turbulent premixed flames (Menon and Kerstein, 1992), mixing in homogeneous turbulent flows (Kerstein, 1991a,b;McMurtry et al, 1993a;Cremer et al, 1994;Frankel, 1993) among others; an up-to-date review is available (McMurtry et al, 1993b). These contributions have been very useful in capturing the physics and in motivating further research on several important features of turbulent reacting flows.…”
