This book is authored by Dr. Suhas V. Patankar, a distinguished professor, who is a pioneer in the field of Finite Volume based CFD. He is the one who found SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations) algorithm with his colleagues which is widely used in current solvers. This book is nothing but his lecture notes on CFD. This is an excellent book for beginners. The concepts are explained very well despite having no derivations. It is very easy to understand. The drawbacks ar...
Flipkart delivers ahead of schedule again. The quality of the book is great. No problems with the page and print quality. The price was good too - Rs. 553/-
No book on CFD can replace this one. It has been written in such a simple and plain language that even beginners in CFD would love to keep reading this. Thanks to Patankar for such a wonderful gift to the CFD community.
Numerical Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow by Patankar is a very good book to learn CFD in Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow. The book can be used as course material for one semester learning at under graduate or Post graduate level.
