This book is primarily for a first one-semester course on CFD; in
mechanical, chemical, and aeronautical engineering. Almost all the
existing books on CFD assume knowledge of mathematics in general
and differential calculus as well as numerical methods in
particular; thus, limiting the readership mostly to the
postgraduate curriculum. In this book, an attempt is made to
simplify the subject even for readers who have little or no
experience in CFD, and without prior knowledge of fluid-dynamics,
heattransfer and numerical-methods. The major emphasis is on
simplification of the mathematics involved by presenting
physical-law (instead of the traditional differential equations)
based algebraic-formulations, discussions, and
solution-methodology. The physical law based simplified CFD
approach (proposed in this book for the first time) keeps the level
of mathematics to school education, and also allows the reader to
intuitively get started with the computer-programming. Another
distinguishing feature of the present book is to effectively link
the theory with the computer-program (code). This is done with more
pictorial as well as detailed explanation of the numerical
methodology. Furthermore, the present book is structured for a
module-by-module code-development of the two-dimensional numerical
formulation; the codes are given for 2D heat conduction, advection
and convection. The present subject involves learning to develop
and effectively use a product - a CFD software. The details for the
CFD development presented here is the main part of a CFD software.
Furthermore, CFD application and analysis are presented by
carefully designed example as well as exercise problems; not only
limited to fluid dynamics but also includes heat transfer. The
reader is trained for a job as CFD developer as well as CFD
application engineer; and can also lead to start-ups on the
development of "apps" (customized CFD software) for various
engineering applications. "Atul has championed the finite volume
method which is now the industry standard. He knows the
conventional method of discretizing differential equations but has
never been satisfied with it. As a result, he has developed a
principle that physical laws that characterize the differential
equations should be reflected at every stage of discretization and
every stage of approximation. This new CFD book is comprehensive
and has a stamp of originality of the author. It will bring
students closer to the subject and enable them to contribute to
it." --Dr. K. Muralidhar, IIT Kanpur, INDIA
