Sinopsis

The authors present a general and self-contained theory of iterative algorithms for evaluating transport coefficients in multicomponent, and especially dilute polyatomic gas mixtures thus filling a gap left by other books that give preference to pure (mostly monatomic) gases and to binary mixtures. Approximate expressions for the transport coefficients are rigorously derived from the kinetic theory. These can be readily used, at a reduced computational cost, in numerical models. Hence, the present algorithms will be of extensive interest in theoretical calculations and numerical modeling for fluid mechanics, combustion, crystal growth, and other engineering applications. The material is covered rigorously and comprehensively, and every mathematical step is marefully explained.

Reseña del editor

With the advent of sophisticated computer technology and the development of efficient computational algorithms, numerical modeling of complex multicomponent laminar reacting flows has emerged as an increasingly popular and firmly established area of scientific research. Progress in this area aims at obtaining better resolved and more accurate solutions of specific technological problems in less computer time. Therefore, it strongly relies upon the ability of evaluating fundamental parameters appearing in the physical models. Transport properties constitute a typical example of the above characterization. Evaluating transport coefficients of dilute polyatomic gas mixtures is often critical in many engineering applications, including chemical reactors, hypersonic flows, comb- tion phenomena, and chemical vapor deposition. Using the kinetic theory of dilute polyatomic gas mixtures as a starting point, this book offers a systematic development of a mathematical and numerical theory for the evaluation of transport properties in dilute polyatomic gas mixtures. The present investigation is not specifically.about the kinetic theory of gases, for which there are plenty of excellent and thoroughly do- mented textbooks; it is rather geared toward the development of new, efficient, and general algorithms with which to evaluate transport properties of dilute polyatomic gas mixtures at a reasonable computational cost.
