Von der hinteren Coverseite

The second edition of Numerical Computation of Internal and External Flows is a self-contained introduction to computational fluid dynamics (CFD). It covers the fundamentals of the subject required in an introductory course for senior undergraduate or graduate level students. It is also ideal for readers who need a comprehensive reference to CFD theory and practice, or as the basis for more advanced study and simulation development.

Key Features:
New approach takes readers seamlessly from first principles to more advanced and applied topics
Presents the essential components of a simulation system at a level suitable for those coming into contact with CFD for the first time, and is ideal for those who need a comprehensive refresher on the fundamentals of CFD
Enhanced pedagogy features chapter objectives, hands-on practice examples and end of chapter exercises
Extended coverage of finite difference, finite
volume and finite element methods
New chapters include an introduction to grid
properties and the use of grids in practice
Includes material on 2-D inviscid, potential
and Euler flows, 2-D viscous flows, Navier-
Stokes flows to enable the reader to develop basic CFD simulations
Accompanied by downloadable computer code for the numerical solution of 1-D convection and convection diffusion problems, plus test cases. Visit http://books.elsevier.com for details.
Includes Best-Practice guidelines for applying existing commercial or shareware CFD tools|The second edition of Numerical Computation of Internal and External Flows is a self-contained introduction to computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
