TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

TL;DR: In this paper, global reaction schemes for the combustion of alkane hydrocarbons up to butane in mixtures with air in premixed and diffusion flames have been derived using analysis of flame structures.

TL;DR: In this paper, a reaction mechanism for soot formation in non-premixed flames is proposed and tested for different flame configurations and fuels, and the mechanism is combined with detailed and simplified gas phase chemistry for ethylene and methane flames respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the main components of calculation methods, based on the solution of conservation equations in differential form, for the velocity, temperature and concentration fields in turbulent combusting flows.
