The prediction of turbulent flows is of paramount importance in the
development of complex engineering systems involving flow, heat and
mass transfer, and chemical reactions. Arising from a programme
held at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge, this volume
reviews the current situation regarding the prediction of such
flows through the use of modern computational fluid dynamics
techniques, and attempts to address the inherent problem of
modelling turbulence. In particular, the current physical
understanding of such flows is summarised and the resulting
implications for simulation discussed. The volume continues by
surveying current approximation methods whilst discussing their
applicability to industrial problems. This major work concludes by
providing a specific set of guidelines for selecting the most
appropriate model for a given problem. Unique in its breadth and
critical approach, this book will be of immense value to
experienced practitioners and researchers, continuing Cambridge's
strong tradition in fluid dynamics.
