Direct Numerical Simulations of Gas-Liquid Multiphase Flows

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This graduate-level book covers numerical methods for the direct simulation of the Navier-Stokes equation with interfaces. It recalls basic theory and experimental facts, describes numerical methods in detail and applications such as simple flow around drops and bubbles, boiling, atomization, splashing and cavitation.
