ReviewsHans Bruun has written a comprehensive book which provides a state-of-the-art survey on developments and use of HWA. The author approaches the subject in an easy to read, straightforward manner, starting with the basic principles of HWA. The material is informative and introduces topics suchas the response equations used for HWA signal interpretation and methods for data acquisition, processing, and presentation. This is an excellent book written in a clear and readable style suitable for students, research scientists, and engineers. The text is well supported by mathematicalanalysis and, whenever necessary, with adequate illustrations and diagrams. I highly recommend the book to everyone working in the field of experimental fluid mechanics. It should be obligatory reading for students involved in turbulence measurements.

SynopsisThis book is a comprehensive, easy-to-access reference book for students, engineers and researchers engaged in the practical use of any aspect of 'hot wire' anemometry (HWA). The book introduces the logical framework for a computer based HWA system and identifies the individual steps in the complete experimental procedure ranging from probe selection through to presentation of analysed data. HWA is based on convective heat transfer from a heated wire or film element placed in a fluid flow. Any changes in the fluid flow conditions which affect the heat transfer from the heated element can be studied with HWA. This book explains the concepts and related practical implementations of all major HWA applications, and has been structured in such a way that it is of direct value to both people with little practical knowledge of HWA as well as to researchers with considerable experience in the field., A comprehensive and practical book that examines this very important technique used in fluid flow measurements. As well as the physical experimental set-ups and techniques the book deals with the analysis of the signals gathered from HWA probes., Hot-wire anemometry techniques have proven a vital resource in the study of fluid mechanics for practitioners in a wide range of fields, from physics and chemical engineering to aeronautics and hydraulics. This is the most up-to-date, comprehensive, and practical book on the subject available, explaining the concepts and related practical implementations of all major hot-wire anemometry applications. It introduces the logical framework for a computer-based HWA system and identifies the individual steps in the complete experimental procedure, ranging from probe selection to the presentation of analyzed data. This major work will be invaluable as a reference for students, engineers, and researchers in the field.
