Flows at Large Reynolds Numbers

Many types of flow, such as those around aircraft, ships, turbines and re-entry space vehicles, occur at large Reynolds numbers. Written by leading experts in the field, this book describes the methods used for the calculation of such flows including inviscid flow methods, boundary-layer methods, viscous-inviscid interaction methods, and Navier-Stokes equation methods. Reviewing recent advances and comparing numerical results with experimental data, where available, Flows at Large Reynolds Numbers is essential reading for all scientists and engineers who need to be aware of the applications of numerical methods in this field.
