Vortex Flow presents a detailed description of the natural phenomena of vortices, fundamental concepts, and applications of the vortex flows. Numerous figures and examples illustrate concepts presented in this interesting book for mechanical, chemical, powder, and aeronautical engineers and engineering students.

Here is a basic introduction to Lattice Boltzmann models that emphasizes intuition and simplistic conceptualization of processes, while avoiding the complex mathematics that underlies LB models. The model is viewed from a particle perspective where collisions, streaming, and particle-particle/particle-surface interactions constitute the entire conceptual framework. Beginners and those whose interest is in model application over detailed mathematics will find this a powerful 'quick start' guide. Example simulations, exercises, and computer codes are included.
