DESCRIPTION:
However, mathematical descriptions occur near the end of each chapter thus allowing those with a limited mathematical background to make use of the practical details at the beginning of each chapter.. This 1985 book provides a summary of the theory and practice of the hot wire anemometer, an instrument used to measure the speed of fluid flow. The author considers such topics as probe fouling, probe design, and circuit design, as well as the thermodynamics of heated wires and thin films. The book concludes with a section on the pulsed wire anemometer and other wake-sensing anemometers. He also discusses measurements of turbulence, shear flows, vorticity, temperature, combined temperature and velocity, two-phase flows, and compressible flows for measurements in air, water, mercury, blood, glycerine, oil, luminous gases, and polymer solutions. This book assumes a familiarity with basic fluid mechanics. Many techniques and uses of this instrument are discussed in detail
A Customer said An average book. The book I am having is 1986 edition. I am not sure whether there is new edition. This books gives fundamental aspects of hotwire anemometry with simple electronic circuits for the signal processing. But better circuits are available in papers published recently. Anyway this is a good book for beginners only.
