The point-source concept is a versatile technique that can be applied to a host of problems in civil, mechanical, chemical and aerospace engineering. Turbulent Jets: A Point-Source Method for Hydraulic Engineering is based on a momentum transport model applied to point-source. The method enunciated in the book helps to predict mean velocity, temperature and concentration field downstream of three-dimensional outlets, both in stagnant and co-flowing ambient fluid. The task of synthesizing the vast available literature, involving varied notations and normalization scales, has also been done to unify the underlying principles.
The book contains various examples to enable application of the concepts and to explain the essence of methodology. Derivations, where necessary, have been included. It will serve as a textbook for graduate students of Hydraulic and Environmental Engineering. Graduate students of Civil, Mechanical, Chemical and Aerospace engineering and researchers taking courses in Environmental Hydraulics or Turbulent Mixing will also find this book useful.
