Fluid and Thermodynamics Volume 2: Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamic Fundamentals / by Kolumban Hutter, Yongqi Wang.

In this book fluid mechanics and thermodynamics (F&T) are approached as interwoven, not disjoint fields. The book starts by analyzing the creeping motion around spheres at rest: Stokes flows, the Oseen correction and the Lagerstrom-Kaplun expansion theories are presented, as is the homotopy anal...
