Product Description Computational techniques have become indispensable tools in solving complex problems in transport phenomena. This book provides a clear, user-oriented introduction to the subject of computational transport phenomena. Each self-contained chapter includes a detailed worked example and a discussion of the problem system equations. Also included are the numerical methods used; computer code for the solution of the problem system equations; discussion of the numerical solution with emphasis on physical interpretation; and, when appropriate, a comparison of the numerical solution with an analytical solution or a discussion of how the numerical solution goes beyond what can be done analytically, especially for nonlinear problems. Intended for students and a broad range of scientists and engineers, the book includes computer code written in transportable Fortran so the reader can produce the numerical solutions and then extend them to other cases. | ||

The best book I've ever read Just in general, i think this book is just soooo coool. I especially enjoyed the fourth order classical runge-kutta method. Professor Schiesser and Cesar knows what they are talking about, NO? | ||
The essential work in this field. Computational Transport Phenomena has been the single best general work I have found in my research into numerical heat and mass transfer problems. Clearly written, with excellent examples. Also includes well composed FORTRAN code samples. | ||
