The field of physics, which studies the motion of air, primarily in conjunction with its interactions with a solid object is known as aerodynamics. Some of the forces, which are studied within this discipline are the forces of flight: drag and lift. However, the forces of thrust and weight may also be studied in aerodynamic problems. Air is generally assumed to behave as a continuum, rather than as discrete particles. This allows the problems in aerodynamics to be solved using fluid dynamic conservation laws. The principles behind these laws are conservation of mass, conservation of energy and conservation of momentum. This book provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of aerodynamics and related fields. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and post graduate students. For all those who are interested in this field, this book can prove to be an essential guide.
