Features: This book is a textbook introducing new theoretical knowledge of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the software development, application guidance of CFD. The book is divided into eight chapters. The first five chapters focus on the finite volume method as the core, introducing the governing equations of fluid flow and heat transfer problems, spatial and temporal discretization formats, turbulence models, and numerical solution methods. The last three chapters combine with FLUENT software to introduce the principles of CFD software and its new applications in flow field analysis, heat transfer calculations, and multiphase flow simulation through examples. Practicality and novelty are the greatest features of this book. It can serve as a textbook for graduate and undergraduate students in fields such as power, energy, water conservancy, aviation, metallurgy, marine, environment, meteorology, and fluid engineering. It can also be referenced by scientists and engineers in the aforementioned fields, especially those engaged in CFD simulation.
