James O. Wilkes has updated his expert hands-on fluid mechanics tutorial with a complete introduction to the popular COMSOL Multiphysics 5.2 software package and ten new COMSOL 5.2 examples.�Building on the text that earned Choice Magazine�s prestigious Outstanding Academic Titles award Wilkes offers masterful coverage of key fluid mechanics topics including computing turbulent flows bubble motion two-phase flow fluidization microfluidics electro-kinetic flow effects and computational fluid dynamics. Throughout he presents more than 300 problems of incrementally greater difficulty helping students build mastery through realistic practice.�Wilkes starts with a macroscopic approach providing a solid foundation for sizing pumps and operating laboratory and field scale equipment. The first four chapters derive equations needed to size chemical plant equipment including pipes in packed beds pumping installation fluid flow measurement filtration and cyclone separation. Next he moves to a microscopic approach introducing key principles for modeling more advanced systems and solving industry or graduate-level problems. These chapters start with a simple derivation of the Navier-Stokes equation (NSE) and then introduce assumptions for various flow geometries helping students reduce equations for easy solution -- analytically or numerically with COMSOL. Updated COMSOL examples include boundary layer flow non-Newtonian flow jet flow lathe flow lubrication momentum diffusion flow through an orifice plate parallel plate flow turbulent flow and more.Read more
