A new assumed probability density function (PDF) approach that accounts for temperature and composition fluctuations, including effects of temperature-composition correlations, has been investigated. Parametric studies were performed to determine the gross behavior of the assumed PDF developed in this work. The results of this study have provided insight into the expected trends of this model for a given kinetic mechanism. Navier-Stokes simulations have also been performed on a co-axial supersonic H2/air burner.
