We study a system of semilinear hyperbolic equations passively advected by smooth white noise in time random velocity fields. Such a system arises in modeling non-premixed isothermal turbulent flames under single-step kinetics of fuel and oxidizer. We derive closed equations for one-point and multi-point probability distribution functions (PDFs) and closed form analytical formulas for the one point PDF function, as well as the two-point PDF function under homogeneity and isotropy. Exact solution formulas allows us to analyze the ensemble averaged fuel/oxidizer concentrations and the motion of their level curves. We recover the empirical formulas of combustion in the thin reaction zone limit and show that these approximate formulas can either underestimate or overestimate average concentrations when reaction zone is not tending to zero. We show that the averaged reaction rate slows down locally in space due to random advection induced diffusion; and that the level curves of ensemble averaged concentration undergo diffusion about mean locations.
