This book offers a practical, application-oriented introduction to
computational fluid dynamics (CFD), with a focus on the concepts
and principles encountered when using CFD in industry. Presuming no
more knowledge than college-level understanding of the core
subjects, the book puts together all the necessary topics to give
the reader a comprehensive introduction to CFD. It includes
discussion of the derivation of equations, grid generation and
solution algorithms for compressible, incompressible and hypersonic
flows. The final two chapters of the book are intended for the more
advanced user. In the penultimate chapter, the special difficulties
that arise while solving practical problems are addressed.
Distinction is made between complications arising out of
geometrical complexity and those arising out of the complexity of
the physics (and chemistry) of the problem. The last chapter
contains a brief discussion of what can be considered as the Holy
Grail of CFD, namely, finding the optimal design of a fluid flow
component. A number of problems are given at the end of each
chapter to reinforce the concepts and ideas discussed in that
chapter. CFD has come of age and is widely used in industry as well
as in academia as an analytical tool to investigate a wide range of
fluid flow problems. This book is written for two groups: for those
students who are encountering CFD for the first time in the form of
a taught lecture course, and for those practising engineers and
scientists who are already using CFD as an analysis tool in their
professions but would like to deepen and broaden their
understanding of the subject.
