Summary

This chapter provides an overview of the key elements of turbulent flow. First, the basic averaging approach and examples of turbulent flow decompositions are discussed. Using these techniques, the average transport equations for mass, momentum, and species with closure models are given, followed by advanced numerical techniques for turbulent flows. Turbulent time and length scales as well as the kinetic energy cascade are overviewed, and theoretical turbulent species diffusion is treated.
