Boundary layer analysis

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Spanning the entire range of viscous fluid flows of engineering interest - from low-speed to hypersonic flows - this volume introduces and analyzes turbulent flows, the physics of turbulent shear flows, and turbulence models. It covers older analytical methods which are widely used in preliminary design, especially for design optimization studies, and offers concurrent treatment of momentum, heat and mass transfer. For mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineers.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. [558]-579) and index.
