Description:
A description of the emerging field of direct numerical simulations of turbulent, chemically reacting flows is presented. The types of direct numerical simulations, physical issues related to implementing the simulations, as well as the various numerical methods used are described. Examples are presented of recent applications of direct numerical simulations to a variety of problems, displaying both the potential of the method and also some of its limitations. Finally, our view of the potential role of direct numerical simulations in future research on turbulent, chemically reacting flows is presented.
