This is a softcover reprint of a very popular hardcover edition, published in1999. An account is given of the state of the art of numerical methods employed in computational fluid dynamics. Numerical principles are treated in detail, using elementary methods. Attention is given to difficulties arising from geometric complexity of the flow domain. Uniform accuracy for singular perturbation problems is studied, pointing the way to accurate computation of flows at high Reynolds number. Unified methods for compressible and incompressible flows are discussed, as well as the shallow-water equations. A basic introduction is given to efficient iterative solution methods. 'This book is a well-writtengraduate level text in computational fluid dynamics, with a good introductionto the two numerical methods, finite volume and finite difference. The material is well-organized, starting with simple one-dimensional equations and moving to numerical methods for two-dimensional and three-dimensional problems. There is a good mixture of theoretical and computational topics. This text shouldbe of value to all researchers interested in computational fluid dynamics.' Mathematical Reviews This book will become the standard reference for CFD for the next 20 years
