Computational fluid dynamics is engaged in solving problems that involve fluid flow through numerical methods, and is an increasingly important and recognized part of many engineering, manufacturing, environmental and medical fields. This book brings together 14 expert-authored contributions to provide an exceptionally varied picture of this innovative area. In the first part, a range of applications are considered. Topics include CFD for modelling sedimentation tanks, the greenhouse environment, astronautics, cooling systems design, and photochemical reactors. In the second part, technologies for particular applications are examined. Subjects include applications in advanced gas cooled reactors, dam engineering and dendritic structures. In the third part, advanced challenges and new approaches are introduced. Topics considered include simulation of compressible vortex flow problems, internal flows driven by wall-normal injection, and analysis of nonlinear hydrodynamic stability. The breadth of topics covered ensures this book will have wide appeal for readers engaged in problems of modelling and simulating fluid dynamics in many energy, environmental and engineering areas.
