Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction to Modeling and Applications

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A new Computational Fluid Dynamics methodology that uses modeling software and is light on theory and rigorous math This concise, highly-illustrated resource presents a new, streamlined method for approaching Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that uses the cutting-edge software ANSYS Fluent and minimal mathematical computations. The book teaches, step by step, how to use the latest software from Fluent to perform the complex calculations required to simulate the free-stream flow of fluids as well as the interaction of the fluids (liquids and gases) with surfaces. Developed from curricula taught by the authors, Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction to Modeling and Applications shows how to apply high-powered numerical analyses and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows and heat transfer. Coverage includes laminar and turbulent flows, heat sinks, heat exchangers, and transient flows. Readers will also discover how to handle validation using real-world simulators such as wind tunnels before moving up to full-scale testing with flight tests. * Provides a new approach that involves more graphics and software to simplify CFD * Aligns with real-world applications through the use of simulation models * Written by a pair of mechanical engineering educators and thermal fluid experts
