This is a graduate text on turbulent flows, an important topic in fluid dynamics. It is up-to-date, comprehensive, designed for teaching, and is based on a course taught by the author at Cornell University for a number of years. The book consists of two parts followed by a number of appendices. Part I provides a general introduction to turbulent flows, how they behave, how they can be described quantitatively, and the fundamental physical processes involved. Part II is concerned with different approaches for modelling or simulating turbulent flows. The necessary mathematical techniques are presented in the appendices. This book is primarily intended as a graduate level text in turbulent flows for engineering students, but it may also be valuable to students in applied mathematics, physics, oceanography and atmospheric sciences, as well as researchers and practising engineers.

In recent years, turbulence has become a very lively area of scientific research and application, attracting many newcomers who need a basic introduction to the subject. Turbulent Flows ably meets this need, developing both physical insight and the mathematical framework needed to express the theory. The authors present basic theory and illustrate it with examples of simple turbulent flows and classical models of jets, wakes, and boundary layers. A deeper understanding of turbulence dynamics is provided by their treatment of spectral analysis and its applications.

This book presents an introduction to the fundamentals of turbulent flow. Its focus is on understanding and simplifying the equations of motion for various classes of flow, so as to elucidate the most crucial and practically important aspects of the physics. Adopting a classical approach concentrated on canonical flows of various kinds, the book includes wisdom from the last few decades of research, supplementing this with biographical accounts of the 'subject giants' who have shaped the field. Practical exercises are also included, making use of online data sets that can be directly accessed while reading, allowing teachers to construct a wide range of further exercises for students, as well as facilitating independent study and analysis. Key Features: Aimed as a supplement to final year engineering or physical science undergraduate and/or first year graduate courses in turbulence, or as a basis for those entering turbulence research Authored by two experts in the field from different generations, ensuring a broad perspective Contains example questions Provides programmes for the analysis of turbulence data, including recent data from leading research laboratories

Fluid mechanics is the study of how fluids move and the forces that develop as a result. Fluids include liquids and gases and fluid flow can be either laminar or turbulent. This book presents a level set based methodology that will avoid problems in potential flow models with moving boundaries. A review of the state-of-the-art population balance modelling techniques that have been adopted to describe the nature of dispersed phase in multiphase problems is presented as well. Recent works that are aimed at putting forward the main ideas behind a new theoretical approach to turbulent wall-bounded flows are examined, including a state-of-the-art review on single-phase incompressible fluid flow.
