Fluid Mechanics is the study of fluids as an important branch of engineering mechanics. Almost everything on this planet either is a fluid or moves within or near a fluid. The essence of the subject of fluid flow is a judicious compromise between theory and experiment. This textbook not only makes a great deal of theoretical treatment available, but also provides experimental results as a natural and easy complement to the theory. The principles considered in the book are fundamental, and have been well established. However, in presenting this important subject, we have drawn on our own ideas and experience. Throughout the revisions, the informal and student-oriented writing style has been retained and further enhanced, and if it succeeds, has the flavor of an interactive lecture by the authors.
Concepts and definitions in Chapter 1 have been centralized to help them stand out in the text.
Classified applications for the linear momentum equation in Chapter 3 to help students to relate the equation with the applicable engineering problems.
Merged topics on the choice of variable and scaling parameter with the Pi theorem in Chapter 5 to make it easier for students to follow the arguments.
Provided new data for worldwide wind power capacity in Chapter 11 to reflect the advancement in the application of fluid mechanics.
More than 1,680 chapter problems included and organized into several problem types, including Interactive FE Exam questions. These are provided at the end of each chapter.
