Notes on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was written for people who use CFD in their work, research or study, providing essential knowledge to perform CFD analysis with confidence. It offers a modern perspective on CFD with the finite volume method, as implemented in OpenFOAM and other popular general-purpose CFD software. Fluid dynamics, turbulence modelling and boundary conditions are presented alongside the numerical methods and algorithms in a series of short, digestible topics, or notes , that contain complete, concise and relevant information. The book benefits from the experience of the authors: Henry Weller, core developer of OpenFOAM since writing its first lines in 1989; and, Chris Greenshields, who has delivered over 650 days of CFD training with OpenFOAM. Review: very nice book - very nice book, very informative and precise. Review: A great bite sized readable explanation of how CFD works. - This was exactly the type of book I was looking for. I have been working with CFD for a long time, but it has always been a closed box to me. I know how to make it run, but have always wanted to learn more about how it works and the maths behind the scenes. The authors do a great job, introducing topics in small bite sized chunks. I tend to pick the book up when I have a few minutes and read a few pages at a time. Even approaching like this somehow I seem to be retaining the information, which is a real testament to the book and the unique approach it employs.

Recommended for CFD beginners
Easy to read and navigate through, with small 2-paged subjects . Useful for a beginner on the topic of CFD, but includes topics for an experienced user. Friendly language, not a formal scientific paper.

Concise, but not a textbook
The two-page to a topic can become limiting. But gets a lot of information over.

Excellent book
Please go ahead if you are a practicing CFD engineer. I use this for understanding Openfoam.

Excellent CFD review
As others pointed out before, this book is not a typical introductory course on CFD. Nevertheless it provides an on point and well written summary of many important topics as well as some basic principles and concepts. I definitely gained some more profound insight and alternative perspectives regarding quite a few things. Definitely worth the price.

Cristallino!
Il testo è chiaro e ben strutturato, presenta un'introduzione sulla fluidodinamica non troppo rigorosa ma focalizzata sulla comprensione dei concetti, quindi passa alla trattazione del CFD vero e proprio in una maniera completa, esaustiva e cristallina. Seppur il testo sia disponibile online in forma di pagine web, vale la pena di acquistarlo sia per una maggiore facilità di consultazione, sia per la qualità dei contenuti che gli fanno meritare il posto nella libreria.
