Adiabatic Waves in Liquid-vapor Systems 1989 - Symposium Proceedings (Hardcover)

The contributions to this volume cover the following subjects: Liquefaction shockwaves and shock splitting, evaporation waves, condensation in laval nozzles and turbines, stability in multiphase shocks, non-equilibrium and near-critical phenomena, nucleation in dynamic systems, structure of transition layers, acoustic phenomena in two-phase systems and cavitation waves. All of these topics are treated with emphasis on physical results, new phenomena and theoretical models. Participants from fourteen nations took part in the symposium and presented papers which were within the range of above-mentioned topics.
