Beschreibung:
This book keeps students grounded in the basic conservation principles and motivates them to understand and solve each flow problem in terms of physical principles, which empowers them with new confidence in the subject. It develops a strong foundation in control volume analyses for the basic conservation laws of mass, momentum, energy, and entropy in inertial and non-inertial reference frames, including an exceptionally intuitive understanding of 1-D compressible flows with area change, friction, heat transfer, and rotation under both continuous and abrupt changes in entropy.
Kinematics of Fluid Flow. Key Concepts of Thermofluids. Control Volume Analysis. Bernoulli Equation. Compressible Flow. Potential Flow. Navier-Stokes Equations: Exact Solutions. Boundary Layer Flow.
