Description for Aerothermodynamics of Turbomachinery: Analysis and Design
Hardcover. Although some books have been published in this field, there is no an advanced book focusing on turbomachinery aerothermodynamics with systematic introduction of fundamental theory, experimental methods, industrial applications and the latest developments. With his over 50 years' experience in the area, Chen's book fills the gap. Num Pages: 480 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TGBN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 250 x 172 x 30. Weight in Grams: 964.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is now an essential and effective tool used in the design of all types of turbomachine, and this topic constitutes the main theme of this book. With over 50 years of experience in the field of aerodynamics, Professor Naixing Chen has developed a wide range of numerical methods covering almost the entire spectrum of turbomachinery applications. Moreover, he has also made significant contributions to practical experiments and real-life designs.
