IST 170 000 ECU 10. Summary and Objectives The project is aimed at integrating a multi-scalar PDF Monte Carlo solution for transport processes in composition/ temperature space with a CFD 3-D solver predicting transport in physical space. IST participation will provide highly accurate experimental results obtained in non-reacting and reacting turbulent flows. In compliance with these objectives, the measurements included those of instantaneous velocity, instantaneous temperature and time- averaged gas species concentrations for a range of flow conditions. 11.
