Introduction to the finite element method -- 5. Vorticity-stream function approach -- 6. Solution of Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible flows using SIMPLE and MAC algorithms -- 7. Solution of Navier-Stokes equations in curvilinear coordinates -- 8. Volume-of-fluid methods for surface tension dominant two-phase flows-- References-- Nomenclature-- Index N2 - This book is an effort to cover a range of topics, from elementary concepts for the uninitiated students to state-of -the-art algorithms useful for the practitioners. the contents begin with preliminaries, in which the basic principles and techniques of finite difference, finite volume and finite element methods are described using detailed mathematical treatment. The methodologies are explained systematically using step-by-step hand calculations. The flow paradigm has been incompressible flows. Students and practitioners particularly in mechanical, aerospace, chemical, metallurgy and civil engineering will benefit from this authoritative material. ER -
