Boundary Layer Analysis is a revision of the 1993 Prentice-Hall edition. Spanning the entire range of viscous fluid flows of engineering interest--from low-speed to hypersonic flows--this volume introduces and analyzes laminar, transitional, and turbulent flows; the physics of turbulent shear flows; and turbulence models. It offers concurrent treatment of momentum, heat, and mass transfer, and covers new analytical methods that are widely used in preliminary design, especially for design optimization studies. The major revisions feature new worked examples and homework problems employing user-friendly JAVA Applets for boundary layer calculations including modern numerical methods. For mechanical, aerospace, and civil engineers.
