Computational Fluid Dynamics

Computational Fluid Dynamics: Principles and Applications provides students, engineers and scientists with a solid understanding of the numerical methods and principles underlying modern computation techniques in fluid mechanics. Providing complete coverage of the essential knowledge required in order to write code or understand commercial codes, the book gives the reader an overview of fundamentals and solution strategies in the early chapters before moving on to cover the details of different solution techniques. This new edition is updated throughout, with new worked programming examples and expanded coverage of: . Incompressible flows . Discontinuous Galerkin Method . Lattice Boltzmann Method . Tensor notation . Parallelization The accompanying companion website contains the sources of 1-D and 2-D Euler and Navier-Stokes flow solvers (structured and unstructured) and grid generators, along with tools for Von Neumann stability analysis of 1-D model equations and source code for a dedicated visualization software. .
