DESCRIPTION:
The text includes carefully selected problems throughout to strengthen the reader's grasp of the material, and an exhaustive bibliography suggests further reading.. To make the book as accessible as possible to first-year graduate students, the author introduces the simplifying method of vector notation, and vector and tensor notation are developed as an integral part of the first few chapters.Part I provides a theoretical background to fluid flow, as well as introducing the equations of change and the various flux vectors of transport theory, and culminates in the derivation of the Navier-Stokes equations. It remained for Professor Brodkey (Emeritus, Chemical Engineering, Ohio State University) to tie together the disparate threads of the topic in a clear, well-organized exposition. "I know of no other in which the subjects of non-Newtonian and multiphase flow are treated in as organized, clear, and complete fashion as they are here." — Lawrence Talbot, Physics TodayNotable for its thoroughness and clarity, this well-written graduate-level text presents the theoretical background of fluid flow from
Andre Luiz A. Simoes said Um grande livro. O livro do Professor Brodkey é um clássico indispensável. Trata-se de um obra que aborda de forma altamente compreensível variados assuntos essenciais ligados à fluidodinâmica, incluindo um capítulo sobre fluidos não newtonianos e três sobre escoamentos multifásicos. A linguagem. "The best reference for advanced momentum transport." according to ce_siatkowsk@che.eng.ohio-state.edu. In my studies as a Chemical Engineer specializing in Fluid Dynamics, I have not come across another book which has more content or is better organized in the topic of advanced momentum transport. Professor Brodkey outdid himself with this work, not only giving a detailed analysis of Newtonian fluids and laminar flow, but also thoroughly delving . Five Stars must have
