Summary
Turbulent mixing is important in a wide variety of applications. One such application is high speed air breathing aircraft engines (supersonic combustion/hypersonic aircrafts). As aircrafts continue to fly at higher speeds, complete mixing has to be achieved within shorter combustion chambers to minimize fuel consumption,  avoid combustion instabilities and decrease emissions. The turbulent mixing of two streams of gases (propane and air) is modeled in this tutorial.
