A new approach to CFD that leverages modeling software and is light on math
This concise, highly illustrated resource gets you started using a new, streamlined method for approaching Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that utilizes commercial software and requires minimal mathematical computations. Developed from curricula taught by the authors, Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction to Modeling and Applications shows how to use high-powered numerical analyses and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows and heat transfer. You will learn how to use the latest computer programs, such as Fluent, to perform the complex calculations required.
Coverage includes:
Conservation laws in thermal-fluid sciences
The finite volume method
Two-dimensional steady state laminar incompressible fluid flow
Three-dimensional steady state turbulent incompressible fluid flow
Convection heat transfer for two-dimensional steady state incompressible flow
Three-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer modeling in a heat exchanger
Three-dimensional fluid flow and heat transfer modeling in a heat sink
Solving the linear and non-linear system of equations
