This book describes an engineering approach based on interactive boundary-layer and stability-transition theories, both developed by the author, for calculating aerodynamic flows. This is the first time these powerful computational techniques have been published in book form.

Explores the equations that govern heat and momentum transfer in laminar and turbulent boundary-layer lows with small temperature differences and buoyant flows. Numerical solutions, a large number of homework problems and several computer programs based on differential and integral methods are included.

In this book, after a brief review of the more popular turbulence models, we present and discuss accurate and efficient numerical methods for solving the boundary-layer equations with turbulence models based on algebraic formulas (mixing length, eddy viscosity) or partial-differential transport equations. A computer program employing the Cebeci-Smith model and the k-e model for obtaining the solution of two-dimensional incompressible turbulent flows without separation is discussed in detail and is presented in the accompanying CD. The numerical solution of the boundary-layer equations...

The standard textbooks on aerodynamics usually omit any discussion of un- steady aerodynamics or, at most, consider it only in a single chapter, based on two justifications. The first is that unsteady aerodynamics should be regarded as a specialized subject required "only" in connection with understanding and an- alyzing aeroelastic phenomena such as flutter and gust response, and therefore should be dealt with in related specialist books. The second reason appears to be reluctance to discuss aerodynamics with the inclusion of the time-dependent terms in the conservation equations and the...

From the reviews: "The book has a broad and general coverage of both the mathematics and the numerical methods well suited for graduate students." Applied Mechanics Reviews #1 "This is a very well written book. The topics are developed with separate headings making the matter easily understandable. Computer programs are also included for many problems together with a separate chapter dealing with the application of computer programs to heat transfer problems. This enhances the utility of the book." Zentralblatt fur Mathematik #1"

This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at the Fourth Symposium on Numerical and Physical Aspects of Aerodynamic Flows, which was held at the California State University, Long Beach, from 16-19 January 1989. It includes the Stewartson Memorial Lecture of Professor J. H. Whitelaw, and is divided into three parts. The first is a collection of papers that describe the status of current technology in two- and three-dimensional steady flows, the second deals with two- and three-dimensional unsteady flows, and the papers in the third address stability and transition. Each of the...

This book presents the solutions to the problems in Convective Heat Transfer. It also contains computer programs to solve homework problems on the CD accompanying the book. Included on the CD are computer programs based on differential and integral methods. Those on differential methods are for two-dimensional flows and allow the user to solve compressible external laminar and turbulent boundary layers, forced and free convection problems between two vertical parallel plates, wall jet problems, turbulent free jet problems, mixing layer between two uniform streams at different...
