Preface

The first author has been involved in research dealing with thermal radiation in combustion systems for the past 30 years or so and first became interested in Turbulence–Radiation interactions in the mid-1990s. When the second author joined the Penn State faculty in 1999, they both formed a team - with Haworth providing expertise in CFD, turbulence, and combustion and Modest in the field of thermal radiation. This cooperation has prospered over the years, resulting in numerous joint research grants from NSF, NASA, DoE, NETL, and AFOSR and continues fruitfully 6 years after the first author moved on to the University of California, Merced. This monograph reviews our own work, and the work of others, on the effects of radiation in turbulent reactant flows and how to deal with these effects theoretically and numerically in simulations.
