5. (a) Use Figure Q5 to introduce the concept of energy cascade and how it affects the motion scales in fluid turbulence. (10 marks) (b) What is meant by the mixture-fraction PDF? And briefly state the advantages and disadvantages with beta-PDF. (10 marks) (c) What is the definition of Dahmkhler number (Da)? And briefly discuss the differences and technical difficulties between 3 conditions when Da < <1, Da>>1, Da1.
