Beskrivning

This textbook for courses in gas dynamics will be of interest to students and teachers in aerospace and mechanical engineering disciplines. It provides an in-depth explanation of compressible flows and ties together various concepts to build an understanding of the fundamentals of gas dynamics. The book is written in an easy to understand manner, with pedagogical aids such as chapter overviews, summaries, and descriptive and objective questions to help students evaluate their progress. The book contains example problems as well as end-of-chapter exercises. Detailed bibliographies are included at the end of each chapter to provide students with further resources. The book can be used as a core text in engineering coursework and also in professional development courses.

Mer om författaren

Dr. Mrinal Kaushik is an Associate Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. Before joining this institute in 2013, he worked at the Defense Institute of Advanced Technology (Pune), General Motors Technical Center (Bangalore), Indian Space Research Organization (Trivandrum), and Tata Consultancy Services (Mumbai). Dr. Kaushik received his Ph.D., M.Tech, and B.Tech degrees in Aerospace Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur in 2012, 2003, and 1999, respectively. His research interests include Shock-Wave and Boundary-Layer Interactions, and Jet Control and Base Flows. He has published several research articles in peer-reviewed international journals and refereed conference proceedings. He is a member of many national and international technical societies. He has written four other books for the engineering students, namely, Instrumentation and Measurements in Compressible Flows (CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group, Boca Raton, USA, In Progress); Theoretical and Experimental Aerodynamics (Springer Nature, Singapore, 2019); Essentials of Aircraft Armaments (Springer Nature, Singapore, 2016); and Innovative Passive Control Techniques for Supersonic Jet Mixing (Lap LAMBERT Academic Publishing, Germany, 2012).

Recensioner i media

“The book is a course in gas dynamics, based on lectures by the author. The aim is declared as a complete textbook for undergraduate course in gas dynamics, and the aim has been reached. … The book contains as appendices tables, with detailed characteristics (temperature, density, pressure, speed of sound) of the standard atmosphere at the 5 m vertical grid up to 50 km. Other tables assist in numerical study of the described phenomena.” (Ilya A. Chernov, zbMATH 1544.76001, 2024)
