Aerodynamics for Engineering Students


Aerodynamics for Engineering Students
Fifth Edition

ISBN 0 7506 5111 3

This volume is intended for students of engineering on courses or programmes of study to graduate level. The sequence of subject development in this edition commences with definitions and concepts and goes on to cover incompressible flow, low speed aerofoil and wing theory, compressible flow, high speed wing theory, viscous flow, boundary layers, transition and turbulence, wing design, propellers and propulsion.

It is recognized that aerodynamic design makes extensive use of computational aids. This is reflected in part in this volume by the introduction, where appropriate, of descriptions and discussions of relevant computational techniques. However, no comprehensive cover of computational methods is intended, and experience in computational techniques is not required for a complete understanding of the aerodynamics in this book.
