Numerical Simulation of Effluent Discharges

<p><em>Numerical Simulation of Effluent Discharges: Applications with OpenFOAM</em> provides a resource for understanding the effluent discharge mechanisms and the approaches for modeling them. It bridges the gap between academia and industry with a focused approach in CFD modeling and providing practical examples and applications. With a detailed discussion on performing numerical modeling of effluent discharges in various ambient waters and with different discharge configurations the book covers the application of OpenFOAM in effluent discharge modeling. </p><p>Features:</p><ul> <li>Discusses effluent discharges into various ambient waters with different discharge configurations.</li> <li>Focuses on numerical modeling of effluent discharges.</li> <li>Covers the fundamentals in predicting the mixing characteristics of effluents resulting from desalination plants.</li> <li>Reviews the past CFD studies on the effluent discharge modeling thoroughly.</li> <li>Provides guidance to researchers and engineers on the future steps in modeling of effluent discharges.</li> <li>Includes an introduction to OpenFOAM and its application in effluent discharge modeling.</li> </ul><p>The book will benefit both academics and professional engineers practicing in the area of environmental fluid mechanics and working on the effluent discharge modeling.</p><p>Chapter 3 of this book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www.routledge.com.
