Engineering Fluid Dynamics : An Interdisciplinary Systems Approach
Editorial Reviews
Review
'... highly readable, and consistent in its high quality of presentation ... This is the kind of book you want to read from first to last page, but is one which you can dip to grab what you need ... A worthy addition beside your desk.' Geoffrey J. Lyons, Contemporary Physics
Book Description
This text provides a thorough treatment of the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and convection heat transfer and shows how to apply the principles to a wide variety of fluid flow problems. The focus is on incompressible viscous flows with special applications to non-Newtonian fluid flows, turbulent flows, and free-forced convection flows. A special feature of the text is its coverage of generalized mass, momentum, and heat transfer equations, Cartesian tensor manipulations, scale analyses, mathematical modeling techniques, and practical solution methods. The final chapter is unique in its case-study approach, applying general modeling principles to analyze nonisothermal flow systems found in a wide range of engineering disciplines. The author provides numerous end-of-chapter problems, solutions, and mathematical aids to enhance the reader's understanding and problem-solving skills.
