Fluid

This book provides the basic concept of fluid flow behavior in interaction with structures, which is crucial for almost all engineering disciplines. The book covers a variety of fluid-structure interaction, problems ranging from fundamentals of fluid mechanics to plasma physics, wind turbines and their turbulence, heat transfer, magnetohydrodynamics, and dam-reservoir systems.

In October 1918, Jan Burgers, 23 years old, started as professor of ‘aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, and their applications’ at the Technical University in Delft. This can be regarded as the birth of fluid mechanics in the Netherlands, not only as an academic discipline but also as the start of the serious study of flow phenomena in engineering environments.

This book is intended for use as a reference text to help advanced scientists and research engineers solve numerous and diverse fluid flow problems using computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

This book collects the recent studies that have applied the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique in analyzing several representative processes covering mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, environmental engineering, and thermal engineering.

Learn how fluid solvers are built from scratch without prior knowledge. This first course covers all the math needed.

Fluid Statics, Forces on Plane and Curved Surfaces, Manometers, Bernoulli Equation, Mass Conservation, Linear Momentum.

This revised and expanded second edition presents the most recent evidence-based facts on perioperative fluid management and discusses fluid management from basic sciences to clinical applications and the patients’ outcomes.
