Beginning with an accessible introduction to rotating flow, recognized expert Peter Childs takes you through fundamental equations, vorticity and vortices, rotating disc flow, flow around rotating cylinders and flow in rotating cavities, with an introduction to atmospheric and oceanic circulations included to help deepen understanding.Whilst competing resources are weighed down with complex mathematics, this book focuses on the essential equations and provides full workings to take readers step-by-step through the theory so they can concentrate on the practical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrefaceNomenclature 1 Introduction to Rotating Flow 2 Laws of motion3 Vorticity and Rotation 4 Discs 5 Rotating Cylinders, Annuli and Spheres 6 Rotating cavities 7 Atmospheric and Oceanic Circulations Appendix A: Air properties Appendix B: Selected mathematical relationships Appendix C: Glossary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Flow, turbulence, rheology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Flow, turbulence, rheology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Flow,%20turbulence,%20rheology%20%5BTGMF3%5D%22\"\u003eTGMF3\u003c\/a\u003e], Fluid mechanics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Fluid mechanics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Fluid%20mechanics%20%5BPHDF%5D%22\"\u003ePHDF\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Butterworth-Heinemann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648710201624,"sku":"9780128102121","price":64.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780128102121.jpg?v=1694093488","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/rotating-flow-paperback-9780128102121","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
