Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

This concise book is intended to fulfill two purposes: to provide an important supplement to classic texts by carrying fluid dynamics students on into the realm of free boundary flows; and to demonstrate the art of mathematical modeling based on knowledge, intuition, and observation. In the authors words, the overall goal is make the complex simple, without losing the essence--the virtue--of the complexity. Modeling Axisymmetric Flows: Dynamics of Films, Jets, and Drops is the first book to cover the topics of axisymmetric laminar flows; free-boundary flows; and dynamics of drops, jets, and films. The text also features comparisons of models to experiments, and it includes a large selection of problems at the end of each chapter.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This timely volume serves two purposes: it provides an important supplement to classic texts by carrying fluid dynamics students into the realm of free boundary flows; and it demonstrates the art of mathematical modeling based on knowledge, intuition, and observation.In addition to its role as a supplemental text, Modeling Axisymetric Flows: Dynamics of Films, Jets, and Drops supplies the basis for a course on fluid dynamics centered around axisymmetric flows from capillaries and the dynamics of drops, bubbles, and films.The topics covered encompass a wide range of phenomena that occur in both research and practical applications in engineering. Included are a variety of examples comparing experimental data to models of the flows described.
