Dynamics of Combustion Systems
Description
Combustion systems are confined fields of compressible fluids where exothermic processes of combustion take place, subject to boundary conditions imposed at its borders. The subject of Dynamics of Combustion Systems is presented in three parts:
Part 1. Exothermicity - considering the thermodynamic effects due to evolution of exothermic energy in a combustion system
Chapter 1. Thermodynamic Aspects
Chapter 2. Evolutionary Aspects
Chapter 3. Heat Transfer Aspects
Chapter 4. Chemical Kinetic Aspects
Part 2. Fluid Dynamics Field - exposing the dynamic properties of flow fields where the exothermic energy is deposited
Chapter 5. Aerodynamic Aspects
Chapter 6. Random Vortex Method
Chapter 7. Gasdynamic Aspects
Chapter 8. Fronts and Interfaces
Part 3. Explosions - revealing the dynamic features of fields and fronts due to rapid deposition of exothermic energy
Chapter 9. Blast Wave Theory
Chapter 10. Self-Similar Solution
Chapter 11. Phase Space Method
Chapter 12. Detonation
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews:
"This book is a nice description and a complete survey of combustion systems where exothermic processes take place. It is written by a specialist of this field. . Many figures or photographs illustrate the book in a nice way. . the book is mainly devoted to physicists and engineers. They will find here some interesting values of the parameters which are involved in combustion devices such as engines. . ends with more than twenty pages of classical or historical references."
