Gasdynamic Aspects of Two-Phase Flow

Here, the author, a researcher of outstanding experience in this field, summarizes and combines the recent results and findings on advanced two-phase flow modeling and numerical methods otherwise dispersed in various journals, while also providing explanations for numerical and modeling techniques previously not covered by other books. The resulting systematic and comprehensive monograph is unrivalled in its kind, serving as a reference for both researchers and engineers working in engineering as well as in environmental science.
