Mechanic and Thermodynamic Modeling of Fluid Interfaces
Mechanic and Thermodynamic Modeling of Fluid Interfaces Author:R. Gatignol, R. Prud'Homme This book constitutes a comprehensive survey of the balance equations for mass, momentum and energy for the interfaces in pure fluids and mixtures. Constitutive laws are presented for many situations in engineering science, and examples are provided, including surface viscosity effects, variable surface tension and vapour recoil. In addition, so... more »me extensions of existing theory are given: stretch effect in premixed flames, relaxation zones downstream two-phase shock waves, and effective surface tension for steep gradient zones.« less
