This Book
covers a small part of the numerous cases of stationary and non stationary
aerodynamics, wave generation and propagation, wind energy, flow control
techniques and, also, sports aerodynamics. It's not an undergraduate text but is
thought to be useful for those teachers and researchers which work in the
several branches of applied aerodynamics and applied fluid dynamics, from
experiments procedures to computational methods.
This
note explains the following topics: introduction to gas dynamics, Conservation
laws, Fundamentals of compressible fluid flow and Shock Phenomena, Aerodynamic
drag, transonic flow and helicopter aerodynamics and also covers computational
fluid dynamics and practical applications like wind tunnel testing techniques.
