Asymptotic Theory of Supersonic Viscous Gas Flows

The mechanics and aerodynamics. Written by the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute in Moscow, it deals with viscous gas flow problems that arise from supersonic flows. These complex problems are engineers dealing with turbofunks and turbines. The book presents the latest asymptotic models, simplified Navier-Stokes equations and viscous-inviscid interaction, and aerodynamics and aircraft design, scientists, academics, and advanced graduates students in the areas of fluid mechanics, aerodynamics and aircraft design, applied mathematics and computational fluid dynamics.

Key features

* The first book in English to cover the latest methodology for the incopressible flow of high-speed aerodynamics and turbomachinery
* Authors are internationally recognized as the leading figures in the field
* Includes a chapter introducing asymptotic methods to enable students to use the book
