The Finite Element Method in Heat Transfer and Fluid Dynamics
About this book
As Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Computational Heat Transfer (CHT) evolve and become increasingly important in standard engineering design and analysis practice, users require a solid understanding of mechanics and numerical methods to make optimal use of available software. Considered to be among the very best in the field, this masterwork from renowned experts J. N. Reddy and D. K. Gartling is the latest version of a book that has long been relied upon by practicing engineers, researchers, and graduate students. Noted for its powerful methodology and clear explanations of the subject, this third edition contains considerably more workable exercises and examples associated with problems in heat conduction, incompressible viscous flow, and convection heat transfer. It also uses applied examples to illustrate applications of FEM in thermal and fluid design analysis.
