Scientific paper
We present a formalism for describing turbulent mixing layers between two moving inhomogeneous media. This represents an extension of the model of Canto & Raga, who considered the case of a mixing layer between a uniform stream and a motionless environment. We apply this formalism to two problems: (i) the mixing layer between a fast, uniform beam of gas in contact with a slower (also uniform) flow; and (ii) the mixing layer formed by the interaction of a stellar wind with an impinging supersonic stream. These problems have direct applicability in the field of stellar outflows, and provide an illustration of the capabilities of the formalism that we have developed.
