Description :

Fluid Mechanics provides a comprehensive and well-illustrated introduction to the theory and application of Fluid Mechanics. The text presents a commitment to the development of student problem-solving skills and features many of the same pedagogical aids unique to Hibbeler texts. KEY TOPICS: Chapter 1 begins with an introduction to fluid mechanics, a discussion of units, and some important fluid properties. The concepts of fluid statistics, including constant accelerated translation of a liquid and its constant rotation are covered in Chapter 2. In Chapter 3, the basic principles of fluid kinematics are covered. The continuity equation is discussed in Chapter 4, followed by the Bernoulli and energy equations in Chapter 5, and fluid momentum in Chapter 6. In Chapter 7, differential fluid flow of an ideal fluid is discussed. Chapter 8 covers dimensional analysis and similitude. Then the viscous flow between parallel plates and within pipes is treated in Chapter 9. The analysis is extended to Chapter 10 where the design of pipe systems is discussed. Boundary layer theory, including topics related to pressure drag and lift is covered in Chapter 11. Chapter 10 discusses open channel flow, and Chapter 11 covers a variety of topics in compressible flow. Finally, turbomachines, such as axial and radial flow pumps and turbines are treated in Chapter 12. MARKET: Fluid Mechanics is appropriate for Fluid Mechanics courses found in Civil and Environmental, General Engineering, and Engineering Technology and Industrial Management departments. It is also serves as a suitable reference and introduction to Fluid Mechanics principles.
