Riassunto:

A new Computational Fluid Dynamics methodology that uses modeling software and is light on theory and rigorous math

This concise, highly-illustrated resource presents a new, streamlined method for approaching Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that uses the cutting-edge software ANSYS Fluent and minimal mathematical computations. The book teaches, step by step, how to use the latest software from Fluent to perform the complex calculations required to simulate the free-stream flow of fluids as well as the interaction of the fluids (liquids and gases) with surfaces.

Developed from curricula taught by the authors, Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction to Modeling and Applications shows how to apply high-powered numerical analyses and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows and heat transfer. Coverage includes laminar and turbulent flows, heat sinks, heat exchangers, and transient flows. Readers will also discover how to handle validation using real-world simulators such as wind tunnels before moving up to full-scale testing with flight tests.

• Provides a new approach that involves more graphics and software to simplify CFD
• Aligns with real-world applications through the use of simulation models
• Written by a pair of mechanical engineering educators and thermal fluid experts

Imane Khalil is an associate professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of San Diego. She was born in Beirut, Lebanon and immigrated to the United States in 1989. Imane worked at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Livermore, California first as a scientist and then as a manager. She managed the department that performed structural analysis for Curiosity, the rover that landed on Mars in 2012. In addition, Imane was adjunct faculty at the University of New Mexico. In 2014, she joined the University of San Diego to become a full time professor of engineering. Imane is a Fellow member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineering.

Issam Lakkis, Ph.D., is professor and chair of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon. He graduated from AUB with a BE and ME in mechanical Engineering in 1991 and 1993 respectively. He then joined the reacting gas dynamics lab at MIT in 1994 and earned his Ph.D. degree in 2000.  From 2000 till 2003, he worked at Coventor on Computer Aided Design of MEMS and RF Circuits. In 2003, he joined AUB and has been a professor since 2017. He is currently the chair of the Mechanical Engineering department. His research interests span species transport in stochastic fields, with applications to pollution transport in the ocean, atmosphere, and urban environments, development of grid-free computational methods for continuum and non-continuum flows, and modeling, design, analysis and simulation of multi-scale/multi-physics micro-devices.
