CONTENIDO:

Using a flexible, interdisciplinary approach suitable for both engineering and applied physics, here is a thorough treatment of the governing equations and principles for continuum fluids. Working from this continuum theory point of view, the authors provide a detailed and extensive discussion of the theoretical back ground, covering fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, and various flow problems such as one-dimensional flows, viscous flows and wave motions. Unlike other texts which cover primarily electrical power generation, applications are made to a variety of scientific and engineering areas. Among the topics covered are areas in astrophysics, MFD lubrication, propulsors, geophysics, and MFD thin airfoil. As preparation for advanced study and research, the text touches on topics beyond continuum theory, such as multifluid theory, kinetic theory, particle motion, radiation effects and tensor electrical conductivity.
