Computational Fluid Dynamics
Description
Computationalfluid dynamics (CFD) techniques are used to study and solve complexfluid flow and heat transfer problems. This comprehensive text rangesfrom elementary concepts for the beginner to state of the art CFD forthe practitioner. It discusses and illustrates the basic principlesof finite difference (FD), finite element (FE), and finite volume(FV) methods, with step-by-step hand calculations. Chapters go on toexamine structured and unstructured grids, adaptive methods,computing techniques, and parallel processing. Finally, the authordescribes a variety of practical applications to problems inturbulence, reacting flows and combustion, acoustics, combined moderadiative heat transfer, multiphase flows, electromagnetic fields,and relativistic astrophysical flows. Students and practitionersparticularly in mechanical, aerospace, chemical, and civilengineering--will use this authoritative text to learn about andapply numerical techniques to the solution of fluid dynamicsproblems.
