Description
Summary:Volume 1. This book is a unique compilation of experimental data, theoretical models and computer simulations of flow past circular cylinders. The circular cylinder is the most widely used shape in engineering, making appearances in aeronautical, chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical, nuclear, off-shore and wind engineering. The book will be useful to postgraduates and practicing engineers in those fields of study and application.
Volume 2. Flow Around Circular Cylinders, Volume 2: Applications is a comprehensive guide through flow phenomena, experiments, applications, mathematical models and computer simulations. Aimed at practicing engineers in industry and research laboratories. It deals with several parameters including the effects of aspect ratio, finite height, free end step change in diameter, taper, cooling towers, rotation cylinders and suction.
Physical Description:volumes <1-2> : illustrations ; 25 cm.
