401 Pages with Subject Index. Tight bright book with no noted defects. Faultless interior text. The purpose of this textbook is to provide senior under-graduate and postgraduate engineers, scientists and applied mathematicians with the specific techniques, and the framework to develop skills in using the techniques that have proven effective in the various branches of computational fluid dynamics. Volume 1 systematically develops the fundamental computational techniques that are required to predict flow behaviour of Newtonian fluids. Relevant background material is provided on partial differential equations, convergence, stability and consistency and equation solution methods. A unified treatment of finite dlifference, finite element. finite volume and spectral methods, as alternative means of discretisation, is emphasized .

Riassunto

This well-known 2-volume textbook provides senior undergraduate and postgraduate engineers, scientists and applied mathematicians with the specific techniques, and the framework to develop skills in using the techniques in the various branches of computational fluid dynamics. In Volume 2 specific techniques are described for inviscid, compressible, boundary layer and separating flow. Grid generation and the use of generalized coordinates for complex geometric domains are dealt with in detail. The most modern methods (including many computer programs) are described in connection with real problems in the field of fluid dynamics. For the the second edition the author also compiled a separately available manual of solutions to the many exercises to be found in the main text.
