Abstract

In this chapter an examination will be made of some of the basic computational techniques that are required to solve flow problems. For a specific problem the governing equations (Chap. 11) and the appropriate boundary conditions (Chaps. 11 and 2) will be known. Computational techniques are used to obtain an approximate solution of the governing equations and boundary conditions.
