Written for courses in Fluid Mechanics in Civil and Mechanical Engineering, this text covers the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics, as well as specialist topics in more depth. The fundamental material relates to all engineering disciplines that require fluid mechanics. As in previous editions this book demonstrates the link between theory and practice with excellent examples and computer programs. The programs help students perform 3 types of calculations; relatively simple calculations, calculations designed to provide solutions for steady state system operation, and unsteady flow simulations.

Solving Problems in Fluid Mechanics (Solving Problems Series)

Technology

Longman Sc & Tech

Fluid Mechanics provides a comprehensive treatment of the essentials of the subject for students of mechanical, chemical or civil engineering and building services or environmental engineering. Well established as the key textbook in the field, this third edition has been substantially updated and improved in line with today's courses.  As in previous editions the reader is guided from the general to the particular, introduced to the basic "building block" equations and shown their application and development through a series of increasingly specialized topics. The breadth of coverage is wide-ranging, covering both bounded and free surface flow conditions, and fluid mechanics is treated as a truly cross-disciplinary topic within engineering.

Volume 1 takes a practical approach, and assumes only an elementary knowledge of mathematics. Essential reading for first degree students of fluid mechanics on civil, mechanical, aeronautical, chemical and environmental engineering and building services courses. Paper.

Solving Problems in Fluid Mechanics

Matthews, R. D.

Volume 2 features a completely new chapter on Computational Fluid Dynamics. It also explains dimensional analysis and its application to dynamical similarity, the use of models for the study of fluid flow, and the behaviour of gases at rest and in motion. Paper.

Solving Problems in Fluid Mechanics (English and Spanish Edition)

This text consistently emphasizes the importance of a fundamental understanding of the principles of fluid mechanics, while covering specialist topics in more depth. The fundamental material relates to all engineering disciplines that require fluid mechanics. As in previous editions this book demonstrates the linkage between theory and practice with excellent examples and computer programs. The programs help students perform 3 types of calculations; relatively simple calculations, calculations designed to provide solutions for steady state system operation, and unsteady flow simulations.
