About this title

Synopsis

From low-speed through hypersonic flight, this book merges fundamental fluid mechanics, experimental techniques, and computational fluid dynamics techniques to build a solid foundation in aerodynamic applications. Many references are recent publications by the world’s finest aerodynamicists with expertise in subsonic, transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic aerodynamics. KEY TOPICS: Starts the new edition with a fun, readable, and motivational presentation on aircraft performance using material on Specific Excess Power (taught to all cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy). Adds new sections to later chapters, presenting new real-world applications. MARKET: A useful reference for professionals in the aeronautics industry.

From the Author

Many of the suggestions and comments made for the 5th edition have been incorporated into the 6th edition--thank you for your ideas! Included are more complete derivations and descriptions of theories, an expanded index, answers to selected homework problems, concept boxes that explain how the various theories are actually applied, and new example problems to better show the use of concepts to calculate aerodynamics.
