good textbook?

June 2, 2008, 12:31

Hi folks,

are there any good textbooks that specifically deal with fluent? I am currently reading "Computational Methods fpr Fluid dynamics" by J.H ferzinger, which is nice but I als would like to read something more applied too. So any suggestions? Would appreciate it a lot, because I did not find anything on amazon or in the books section.

Thx!

The book by Patankar is a good read. Very fundamental on the finite volume method, discretization and velocity-pressuer coupling. You can find the complete reference at the end of the FLUENT manual.

Cheers, Woo
