Download or read book Flows of Reactive Fluids written by Roger Prud'homme and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modeling of reactive flows has progressed mainly with advances in aerospace, which gave birth to a new science called aerothermochemistry, as well as through developments in chemical and process engineering. This work examines basic concepts and methods necessary to study reactive flows and transfer phenomena in areas such as fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and chemistry. The book presents tools of interest to graduate students, researchers in mathematical physics, and engineers who wish to investigate problems of reactive flows. Portions of the text may be used in courses on the physics of liquids or in seminars on mechanics.
