Essentials of Computational Fluid Dynamics | Mechanical Engineering

Product Description

Covered from the vantage point of a user of a commercial flow package Essentials of Computational Fluid Dynamics provides the information needed to competently operate a commercial flow solver. This book provides a physical description of fluid flow outlines the strengths and weaknesses of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) presents the basics of the discretization of the equations focuses on the understanding of how the flow physics interact with a typical finite-volume discretization and highlights the approximate nature of CFD. It emphasizes how the physical concepts (mass conservation or momentum balance) are reflected in the CFD solutions while minimizing the required mathematical/nume…
