TURBULENCE - CHRISTOPHE BAILLY GENEVIÈVE COMTE-...

This book covers the major problems of turbulence and turbulent processes  including physical
phenomena  their modeling and their simulation.After a general introduction in Chapter 1
illustrating many aspects dealing with turbulent flows  averaged equations and kinetic energy
budgets are provided in Chapter 2. The concept of turbulent viscosity as a closure of the
Reynolds stress is also introduced. Wall-bounded flows are presented in Chapter 3 and aspects
specific to boundary layers and channel or pipe flows are also pointed out. Free shear flows 
namely free jets and wakes  are considered in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 deals with vortex dynamics.
Homogeneous turbulence  isotropy and dynamics of isotropic turbulence are presented in Chapters
6 and 7. Turbulence is then described both in the physical space and in the wave number space.
Time dependent numerical simulations are presented in Chapter 8  where an introduction to large
eddy simulation is offered. The last three chapters of the book summarize remarkable digital
techniques current and experimental. Many results are presented in a practical way  based on
both experiments and numerical simulations.The book is written for a advanced engineering
students as well as postgraduate engineers and researchers. For students  it contains the
essential results as well as details and demonstrations whose oral transmission is often
tedious. At a more advanced level  the text provides numerous references which allow readers to
find quickly further study regarding their work and to acquire a deeper knowledge on topics of
interest.
