Purchase options and add-ons

Notes on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was written for people who use CFD in their work, research or study, providing essential knowledge to perform CFD analysis with confidence. It offers a modern perspective on CFD with the finite volume method, as implemented in OpenFOAM and other popular general-purpose CFD software. Fluid dynamics, turbulence modelling and boundary conditions are presented alongside the numerical methods and algorithms in a series of short, digestible topics, or notes, that contain complete, concise and relevant information. The book benefits from the experience of the authors: Henry Weller, core developer of OpenFOAM since writing its first lines in 1989; and, Chris Greenshields, who has delivered over 650 days of CFD training with OpenFOAM.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on CFD from a real practioner.
    Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2024
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This book is a really excellent, practical and to-the-point coverage of the mathematical principles behind CFD, and how they are practically applied in actual computation. It is structured as short topics that build on each other. If you've seen the topic before - it's a fantastic refresher on what it is and it's practical application. If you haven't seen the topic before, you may need to research it more widely to deeply understand it - but you have a context of how it fits into CFD.
    Henry Weller has created the most incredible platform for engineering with fields om OpenFOAM, and Chris Greenshields is an incredible teacher of CFD as his partner in developing the platform.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great reference book for anyone using OpenFOAM
    Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2022
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This is an excellent reference source for those using OpenFOAM, but really any CFD code. The authors say they want to present the complex mathematics for CFD in a form useful to engineers, and they have succeeded in that endeavor. The topics presented are parallel to the concepts in the OpenFOAM code. Many of the dictionary entries required for OpenFOAM cases are clearly reviewed in the notes. The section on turbulence is perhaps the most useful in my opinion.

    My only reason for not making it 5 stars is the lack of numerical examples. Some examples in the turbulence section would be very useful, to see how to apply the models in actual physical situations.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Rigorous yet approachable
    Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2022
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This is THE book I have been waiting for that explains CFD, in particular the Finite Volume Method, in an easily approachable format, yet as rigorous as necessary. I won't say it's an *easy* book to read, but it is as easy as one could possibly make explaining computational fluid dynamics. With "maths on demand," the reader will be introduced to the necessary mathematical topics as needed. I'd say a course in calculus would be good, and at least a basic course in fluid dynamics (though one might get away without that). A course in vector calculus would be of benefit, but not necessarily required.

    With each topic broken down into two pages, this book is highly digestible, either as a learning tool, or a reference. I wish this book had been written many years ago.

    As others pointed out before, this book is not a typical introductory course on CFD. Nevertheless it provides an on point and well written summary of many important topics as well as some basic principles and concepts. I definitely gained some more profound insight and alternative perspectives regarding quite a few things. Definitely worth the price.

    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Il testo è chiaro e ben strutturato, presenta un'introduzione sulla fluidodinamica non troppo rigorosa ma focalizzata sulla comprensione dei concetti, quindi passa alla trattazione del CFD vero e proprio in una maniera completa, esaustiva e cristallina. Seppur il testo sia disponibile online in forma di pagine web, vale la pena di acquistarlo sia per una maggiore facilità di consultazione, sia per la qualità dei contenuti che gli fanno meritare il posto nella libreria.
