An Introduction to Computational Fluid Mechanics

This text is a must for any working engineer or analyst who deals in steady state or unsteady state fluids flow analysis. There are many texts in the field that can be very complete yet tedious for use. The physics are presented in a straightforward manner with smooth transitions to computational methods that easily translate out of the Fortran the text uses (I convert all mine into Mathcad).As a ballistician I refer to this text often, the set-ups are simple to put into the full range of question asked of those in the art. My copy is threadbare and well worn but still first or second off the shelf when a new question of motion comes up - the early example of a ball falling through a real fluid translated directly into my analysis of the internal fluid flows within a hybrid gas generator.Go out of your way to find this book.
