    Description

    The Dynamics of Combustion Systems are presented in three parts in this book. Together they provide a step towards the automatic control of explosions. The exothermic character of combustion systems, their fluid dynamic features, and explosive nature, are covered by this work which also provides a technical monograph for readers with some background in combustion technology. The book is likely to appeal to graduate students, and researchers in academia and industry.

    Editorial Reviews: Review From the reviews:”This book is a nice description and a complete survey of combustion systems where exothermic processes take place. It is written by a specialist of this field. … Many figures or photographs illustrate the book in a nice way. … the book is mainly devoted to physicists and engineers. They will find here some interesting values of the parameters which are involved in combustion devices such as engines. … ends with more than twenty pages of classical or historical references.” (Alain Brillard, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1132 (10), 2008) From the Back Cover Combustion systems are confined fields of compressible fluids where exothermic processes of combustion take place, subject to conditions imposed at their boundaries. The subject of Dynamics of Combustion Systems is presented in three parts:Part 1. Exothermicity – considering the thermodynamic effects due to evolution of exothermic energy in a combustion system Chapter 1. Thermodynamic Aspects Chapter 2. Evolutionary AspectsChapter 3. Heat Transfer AspectsChapter 4. Chemical Kinetic AspectsPart 2. Field– exposing the dynamic properties of flow fields where the exothermic energy is deposited Chapter 5. Aerodynamic AspectsChapter 6. Random Vortex MethodChapter 7. Gasdynamic AspectsChapter 8. Gasdynamic Fronts Part 3. Explosion – revealing the dynamic features of fields and fronts due to rapid deposition of exothermic energy Chapter 9. Blast WavesChapter 10. Self-Similar Blast WaveChapter 11. Phase Space MethodChapter 12. Detonations About the Author Antoni K. Oppenheim is Professor of Engineering in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California. Read more
