Computational Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer

Computational Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer, Fourth Edition is a fully updated version of the classic text on finite-difference and finite-volume computational methods. Divided into two parts, the text covers essential concepts in the first part, and then moves on to fluids equations in the second. Designed as a valuable resource for practitioners and students, new examples and homework problems have been added to further enhance the student’s understanding of the fundamentals and applications.
