Common fluid dynamic equations in curvilinear co-ordinates / by B.G. Krishnappan.: En36-539/37-1979E-PDF

"This manuscript contains most of the commonly used expressions and equations of fluid dynamics expressed in curvilinear co-ordinate systems. While listing the expressions for the metric coefficients and for the various vector operations such as gradient, divergence, curl and laplacian, it is also shown how they are derived from first principles. This manuscript provides a convenient source of fluid dynamic equations and expressions as represented in a curvilinear co-ordinate system. Both research scientists and engineers should find it useful when working with non-orthogonal systems. Practising engineers may also find it useful for understanding reports by scientists and mathematicians"--Preface.
