Computational Fluid Dynamics [Hardcover]

This comprehensive book ranges from elementary concepts to state-of-the-art computational fluid dynamics techniques used to study and solve complex fluid flow problems.In this second edition of Computational Fluid Dynamics, the author presents up-to-date treatments of all computational methods of fluid dynamics, including finite differences, finite elements, and finite volumes. All methods of grid generation, structured and unstructured, are also included. Physical applications to turbulence, combustion, acoustics, radiative heat transfer, multiphase flow, electromagnetic flow, and general relativity assist the reader in practical use of computational schemes. Homework problems and computer programs demonstrating solutions of all speed regimes  compressible; incompressible; viscous; inviscid; and 1D, 2D, and 3D geometries  are made available.In this second edition of Computational Fluid Dynamics, the author presents up-to-date treatments of all computational methods of fluid dynamics, including finite differences, finite elements, and finite volumes.

However, the original idea of including all computational fluid dynamics methods (FDM, FEM, FVM); all mesh generation schemes; and physical applications to turbulence, combustion, acoustics, radiative heat transfer, multiphase flow, electromagnetic flow, and general relativity is still maintained. This unique approach sets this book apart frol£0
