Description
Analytical Fluid Dynamics presents an advanced treatment of inviscid and laminar viscous compressible flows from a theoretical viewpoint. The book emphasizes basic assumptions, physical aspects of the flow, and the appropriate formulations of the governing equations for subsequent analytical treatment. Topics covered include basic concepts, inviscid flow, exact solutions for a viscous flow, and laminar boundary-layer theory for steady two-dimensional or axisymmetric flow. The book complements computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approaches and contains a definitive treatment of the second law of thermodynamics, (unsteady, three-dimensional) shock wave theory, hodograph theory, substitution principle, and first- and second-order boundary-layer theory. It will be a useful text for students and professionals in mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics, physics, aeronautics, and astronautics.
