Covered from the vantage point of a user of a commercial flow package, Essentials of Computational Fluid Dynamics provides the information needed to competently operate a commercial flow solver. This book provides a physical description of fluid flow, outlines the strengths and weaknesses of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), presents the basics of the discretization of the equations, focuses on the understanding of how the flow physics interact with a typical finite-volume discretization, and highlights the approximate nature of CFD. It emphasizes how the physical concepts (mass conservation or momentum balance) are reflected in the CFD solutions while minimizing the required mathematical/numerical background. In addition, it uses cases studies in mechanical/aero and biomedical engineering, includes MATLAB and spreadsheet examples, codes and exercise questions. The book also provides practical demonstrations on core principles and key behaviors and incorporates a wide range of colorful examples of CFD simulations in various fields of engineering.

In addition, this author:



Introduces basic discretizations, the linear advection equation, and forward, backward and central differences
Proposes a prototype discretization (first-order upwind) implemented in a spreadsheet/MATLAB example that highlights the diffusive character
Looks at consistency, truncation error, and order of accuracy
Analyzes the truncation error of the forward, backward, central differences using simple Taylor analysis
Demonstrates how the of upwinding produces Artificial Viscosity (AV) and its importance for stability
Explains how to select boundary conditions based on physical considerations
Illustrates these concepts in a number of carefully discussed case studies

Essentials of Computational Fluid Dynamics provides a solid introduction to the basic principles of practical CFD and serves as a resource for students in mechanical or aerospace engineering taking a first CFD course as well as practicing professionals needing a brief, accessible introduction to CFD.

Dr. Jens-Dominik Mueller is a senior lecturer in the School of Engineering and Materials Science at Queen Mary, University of London, UK. He graduated with a Dipl.-Ing in mechanical engineering in 1989 from the Technical University of Munich, obtained a VKI Diploma in aeronautics from the Von Karman Institute in Brussels in 1990, and an MSc and PhD in aerospace engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 1996. He held research and academic positions at CERFACS, Toulouse, Oxford University and Queen's University Belfast. He is the author of more than 40 publications and has organized numerous international conferences.
