It can be used in convection-dominant applications while maintaining geometric flexibility and higher local approximations throught the use of higer-order elements. Element-by element connection propagates the effect of boundary conditions and the local formulation obviates the need for global matrix assembly. All of this adds up to a method which is not unduly memory-intensive and uniquely useful for working with computational dynamics, heat transfer and fluid flow calculations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDiscontinuous Finite Elements in Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer\u003c\/em\u003e offers its readers a systematic and practical introduction to the discontinuous finite element method. It moves from a brief review of the fundamental laws and equations governing thermal and fluid systems, through a discussion of different approaches to the formulation of discontinuous finite element solutions for boundary and initial value problems, to their applicaton in a variety of thermal-system and fluid-related problems, including: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- heat conduction problems; \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- convection-dominant problems; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- computational compressible flows; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- external radiation problems; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- internal radiation and radiative transfer; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- free- and moving-boundary problems; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- micro- and nanoscale heat transfer and fluid flow; \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- thermal fluid flow under the influence of applied magnetic fields. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMesh generation and adaptivity, parellelization algorithms and \u003cem\u003ea priori\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003ea posteriori\u003c\/em\u003e error analysis are also introduced and explained, rounding out a comprehensive review of the subject.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach chapter features worked examples and exercises illustrating situations ranging from simple benchmarks to practical engineering questions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis textbook is written to form the foundations of senior undergraduate and graduate learning and also provides scientists, applied mathematicians and research engineers with a thorough treatment of basic concepts, specific techniques and methods for the use of discontinuous Galerkin methods in computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45275139637399,"sku":"9781849969901","price":6791.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781849969901.webp?v=1769282011","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/discontinuous-finite-elements-in-fluid-dynamics-and-heat-transfer-9781849969901","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
