Rotating Flow

Key features:

* A detailed yet accessible introduction to rotating flows, illustrating the differences between flows where rotation is significant and highlighting the non-intuitive nature of rotating flow fields

* Written by world-leading authority on rotating flow, Peter Childs, making this a unique and authoritative work

* Covers the essential theory behind engineering applications such as rotating discs, cylinders, and cavities, with natural phenomena such as atmospheric and oceanic flows used to explain underlying principles

* Provides a rigorous, fully worked mathematical account of rotating flows whilst also including numerous practical examples in daily life to highlight the relevance and prevalence of different flow types

* Concise summaries of the results of important research and lists of references included to direct readers to significant further resources
