You should have completed the Laminar Pipe Flow tutorial before continuing with this one. The starting point for this tutorial is the ending point of the one before it. If you bring up the project we have already completed, you can follow the next steps.
Right click on Mesh . Then click on Duplicate, which will duplicate the mesh from the previous tutorial. Enter "Turbulent Flow" in the highlighted field to rename it. At this point your project schematic window should appear as below:
