Handbook of Fluid Dynamics (2nd Edition) -eBook

Handbook of Fluid Dynamics 2nd edition (PDF) offers balanced coverage of the 3 traditional areas of fluid dynamics — computational, theoretical, and experimental — complete with valuable appendices presenting tables of dimensionless numbers, the mathematics of fluid dynamics, and tables of the properties of vapors and gases. Each chapter introduces a different fluid dynamics topic, discusses the pertinent issues, outlines proven techniques for addressing those issues, and supplies useful references for further research.

Covering all major aspects of classical and modern fluid dynamics, this fully updated 2nd Edition:

• Reflects the latest fluid dynamics research and engineering applications

• Includes new sections on emerging fields, most notably nano- and microfluidics

• Surveys the range of computational and numerical methods used in fluid dynamics analysis and design

• Expands the scope of a number of contemporary topics by incorporating new experimental methods, more numerical approaches, and additional areas for the application of fluid dynamics

Handbook of Fluid Dynamics 2e provides an indispensable resource for professionals entering the field of fluid dynamics. The ebook also enables experts specialized in areas outside fluid dynamics to become familiar with the field.
