Fluid Mechanics: An Intermediate Approach addresses the problems
facing engineers today by taking on practical, rather than
theoretical problems. Instead of following an approach that focuses
on mathematics first, this book allows you to develop an intuitive
physical understanding of various fluid flows, including internal
compressible flows with simultaneous area change, friction, heat
transfer, and rotation. Drawing on over 40 years of industry and
teaching experience, the author emphasizes physics-based analyses
and quantitative predictions needed in the state-of-the-art
thermofluids research and industrial design applications. Numerous
worked-out examples and illustrations are used in the book to
demonstrate various problem-solving techniques. The book covers
compressible flow with rotation, Fanno flows, Rayleigh flows,
isothermal flows, normal shocks, and oblique shocks; Bernoulli,
Euler, and Navier-Stokes equations; boundary layers; and flow
separation. Includes two value-added chapters on special topics
that reflect the state of the art in design applications of fluid
mechanics Contains a value-added chapter on incompressible and
compressible flow network modeling and robust solution methods not
found in any leading book in fluid mechanics Gives an overview of
CFD technology and turbulence modeling without its comprehensive
mathematical details Provides an exceptional review and
reinforcement of the physics-based understanding of incompressible
and compressible flows with many worked-out examples and problems
from real-world fluids engineering applications Fluid Mechanics: An
Intermediate Approach uniquely aids in the intuitive understanding
of various fluid flows for their physics-based analyses and
quantitative predictions needed in the state-of-the-art
thermofluids research and industrial design applications.
Logan's Turbomachinery: Flowpath Design and Performance
Fundamentals, Third Edition is the long-awaited revision of this
classic textbook, thoroughly updated by Dr. Bijay Sultanian. While
the basic concepts remain constant, turbomachinery design has
advanced since the Second Edition was published in 1993. Airfoils
in modern turbomachines feature three-dimensional geometries,
Computational Fluid Mechanics (CFD) has become a standard design
tool, and major advances have been made in the materials and
manufacturing technologies that affect turbomachinery design. The
new edition adresses these trends to best serve today's students,
and design engineers working in turbomachinery industries.
This long-awaited, physics-first and design-oriented text describes
and explains the underlying flow and heat transfer theory of
secondary air systems. An applications-oriented focus throughout
the book provides the reader with robust solution techniques,
state-of-the-art three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) methodologies, and examples of compressible flow network
modeling. It clearly explains elusive concepts of windage,
non-isentropic generalized vortex, Ekman boundary layer, rotor disk
pumping, and centrifugally-driven buoyant convection associated
with gas turbine secondary flow systems featuring rotation. The
book employs physics-based, design-oriented methodology to compute
windage and swirl distributions in a complex rotor cavity formed by
surfaces with arbitrary rotation, counter-rotation, and no
rotation. This text will be a valuable tool for aircraft engine and
industrial gas turbine design engineers as well as graduate
students enrolled in advanced special topics courses.
