Traditional modeling of radiative transfer in reacting flows has ignored turbulence-radiation interactions, due to difficulties caused by their inherent nonlinearities and their vast range of length scales and time scales. The state-of-the-art of modeling TRI is reviewed, and some results are presented, in which TRI are calculated from basic principles from the composition probability density function method and from direct numerical simulation calculations. The results show that in turbulent jet flames TRI are always of great importance, and that they are dominated by the correlation between the absorption coefficient and the radiative Planck function.
