Description
This reference covers computational fluid dynamics from fundamentals to applications. It surveys numerical methods for fluid mechanics, gives a description of computational fluid mechanics and looks at numerical analysis, computer technology and visualization tools. It aims to provide the means of reaching a deeper understanding of the problems associated with the calculation of fluid motion in various situations: inviscid and viscous, incompressible, steady and unsteady, laminar and turbulent flows, and simple and complex geomertries.
