Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

A new approach to CFD that leverages modeling software and is light on math

This concise, highly illustrated resource gets you started using a new, streamlined method for approaching Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that utilizes commercial software and requires minimal mathematical computations. Developed from curricula taught by the authors, Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction to Modeling and Applications shows how to use high-powered numerical analyses and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows and heat transfer. You will learn how to use the latest computer programs, such as Fluent, to perform the complex calculations required.

Coverage includes:

• Conservation laws in thermal-fluid sciences
• The finite volume method
• Two-dimensional steady state laminar incompressible fluid flow
• Three-dimensional steady state turbulent incompressible fluid flow
• Convection heat transfer for two-dimensional steady state incompressible flow
• Three-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer modeling in a heat exchanger
• Three-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer modeling in a heat sink
• Solving the linear and non-linear system of equations
• Methods for solving Navier Stokes equations
• And much more

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

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.
