    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Turbulence and Transition in Supersonic and Hypersonic Flows explains how to understand and mathematically model these phenomena, with an emphasis on the unique challenges and features that the compressibility of the fluid introduces. This timely book responds to an increase in research interest in this topic, explaining how to use the latest numerical methods as well as providing important background theory. It covers both the problem of how a laminar boundary layer transitions to turbulence in the supersonic and hypersonic regime and the problem of how compressibility of a fluid affects turbulence.

    Compressible flows are important in many areas of engineering, including external aerodynamics, internal flows in propulsion and power generation applications, flows in supercritical fluids, and many others.


    • Provides an interdisciplinary approach to this topic, drawing on physics, applied math, and fluid mechanics
    • Explains theory and modeling of high-speed turbulent shear layers
    • Addresses astrophysical applications, such as star formation
