ELEMENTS OF AERODYNAMICS An accessible and hands-on textbook filled
with chapter objectives, examples, practice problems, sample tests,
and an online aero-calculator In Elements of Aerodynamics,
Professor Oscar Biblarz delivers a concise and
fundamentals-oriented approach to aerodynamics suitable for both
undergraduate and graduate-level students. The text offers numerous
problems, examples, and check tests, allowing readers to gain and
cement their knowledge through hands-on practice. Using a unique
blend of fundamentals, the book provides students with a new
approach to high lift airfoils including examples designed to
complement the theory. It covers the most vital information on
incompressible and compressible flow over two-dimensional and
three-dimensional wings. A companion website that includes an
interactive aero-calculator and additional student resources makes
this a suitable text for online, hybrid, and distance learning.
Readers will also find: A concise introduction to units and
notation with discussion of the proper usage of dimensionless
coefficients in aerodynamics, featuring descriptions of airflow as
an incompressible and compressible low-viscosity medium past
streamlined wings Comprehensive re-evaluation of the fundamentals
of fluid dynamics, including the differential control volume
approach and formulation of lift, drag, and pitching moments for
thin, attached boundary layers over slender wings at high angles of
attack Practical applications of mass, momentum, and energy
relations, derived from Euler's equation, Bernoulli's equation, and
the Kutta-Joukowski theorem Selected treatment of transonic and
hypersonic aerodynamic aspects, including supercritical airfoils,
the non-linear small perturbation potential equation, Newtonian
theory, and hypersonic lift and drag Well-suited for students
enrolled in an introductory aerodynamics course as part of an
engineering program, Elements of Aerodynamics will also earn a
place in the libraries of physics students and those interested in
basic fluid mechanics.
