Turbulent Fluid Flow

by Peter S. Bernard (Author)
A guide to the essential information needed to model and compute turbulent flows and interpret experiments and numerical simulations

In developing this book, we decided to emphasize applications and to provide methods for solving problems. As a result, we limited the mathematical devel­ opments and we tried as far as possible to get insight into the behavior of numerical methods by considering simple mathematical models. The text contains three sections. The first is intended to give the fundamen­ tals of most types of numerical approaches employed to solve fluid-mechanics problems. The topics of finite differences, finite elements, and spectral meth­ ods are included, as well as a number of special techniques. The second section is devoted to the solution of incompressible flows by the various numerical approaches. We have included solutions of laminar and turbulent-flow prob­ lems using finite difference, finite element, and spectral methods. The third section of the book is concerned with compressible flows. We divided this last section into inviscid and viscous flows and attempted to outline the methods for each area and give examples.

29 Hours Detailed Course Especially Designed for Automotive and Processing Engineers with the Understanding of CFD.

A next level progressive course

A very detailed Course for understanding almost every concept of Fluid Mechanics with solving Practice Problems.

This volume is dedicated to direct numerical simulations (DNS). The numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equation is able to describe the flow variable as a function of space and time. It is called direct numerical simulations (DNS), which is the subject matter of this book
