      The Theory of Subsonic Plane Flow

      • 618 pages
      • 22 hours of reading

      Focusing on two-dimensional subsonic, inviscid fluid motion, this 1961 book offers a clear and structured analysis relevant to aeronautics. It explores the principles and applications of fluid dynamics, making it a valuable resource for understanding the behavior of fluids in various aeronautical contexts.

      In this new approach for a consistent transport theory in nuclear fusion processes Leslie Woods draws on over 40 years of fusion research to directly compare theoretical findings with experimental results, while taking into account recently discovered phenomena. This is thus the first book to find theoretical explanations to the sometimes-puzzling tokamak observations.Following a look at the quest for fusion power, the author goes on to examine tokamak magnetic fields and energy losses, as well as plasma flow and loop voltage. There is also a discussion of the technical constraints on the recently announced ITER design.
