FLUID DYNAMIC APPLICATIONS OF THE DISCRETE BOLTZMANN EQUATION

by R Monaco & L Preziosi (Politecnico di Torino)

This book presents applications to several fluid dynamics problems in both the bounded and unbounded domains in the framework of the discrete velocity models of kinetic theory. The proposition of new models for dense gases, gases with multi-components, and gases with chemical reactions are also included. This is an up-to-date book on the applications of the discrete Boltzmann equation.


Contents:

  • The Discrete Boltzmann Equation — Modelling and Thermodynamics
  • Some Discrete Velocity Models
  • On the Discrete Boltzmann Equation in Unbounded Domains
  • Shock Waves
  • Internal and External Flows
  • The Discrete Boltzmann Equation for Chemically Reacting Gases
  • Subject Index


Readership: Applied mathematicians.
