COMPUTATIONAL METHODS FOR FLUID DYNAMICS - JOEL...

This book is a guide to numerical methods for solving fluid dynamics problems. The most widely
used discretization and solution methods  which are also found in most commercial CFD-programs
are described in detail. Some advanced topics  like moving grids  simulation of turbulence 
computation of free-surface flows  multigrid methods and parallel computing  are also covered.
Since CFD is a very broad field  we provide fundamental methods and ideas  with some
illustrative examples  upon which more advanced techniques are built. Numerical accuracy and
estimation of errors are important aspects and are discussed in many examples. Computer codes
that include many of the methods described in the book can be obtained online. This 4th edition
includes major revision of all chapters  some new methods are described and references to more
recent publications with new approaches are included. Former Chapter 7 on solution of the
Navier-Stokes equations has been split into two Chapters to allow for a more detailed
description of several variants of the Fractional Step Method and a comparison with SIMPLE-like
approaches. In Chapters 7 to 13  most examples have been replaced or recomputed  and hints
regarding practical applications are made. Several new sections have been added  to cover  e.g.
immersed-boundary methods  overset grids methods  fluid-structure interaction and conjugate
heat transfer.
