Editorial Review Product Description The contents of this book covers the material required in the Fluid Mechanics Graduate Core Course (MEEN-621) and in Advanced Fluid Mechanics, a Ph.D-level elective course (MEEN-622), both of which I have been teaching at Texas A&M University for the past two decades. While there are numerous undergraduate fluid mechanics texts on the market for engineering students and instructors to choose from, there are only limited texts that comprehensively address the particular needs of graduate engineering fluid mechanics courses. To complement the lecture materials, the instructors more often recommend several texts, each of which treats special topics of fluid mechanics. This circumstance and the need to have a textbook that covers the materials needed in the above courses gave the impetus to provide the graduate engineering community with a coherent textbook that comprehensively addresses their needs for an advanced fluid mechanics text. Although this text book is primarily aimed at mechanical engineering students, it is equally suitable for aerospace engineering, civil engineering, other engineering disciplines, and especially those practicing professionals who perform CFD-simulation on a routine basis and would like to know more about the underlying physics of the commercial codes they use. Furthermore, it is suitable for self study, provided that the reader has a sufficient knowledge of calculus and differential equations. |

Not even worth messing with.
The Book is OK
I suffered this one...but... Okay the fact is with this book you need three things to make it work: 1) a damn good lecturer, 2) Some effort to do the problems and 3)Schaum's solved problems in fluid mechanics or something similiar. I do disagree that it is impossible. Or REALLY hard or written to impress his professor friends...it just requires some thought...Like anything of a less common nature...less people are going to understand it. That's the nature of the beast! Sure there are many places where it falls down...particularly in the first three chapters. But later on it becomes quite good. From chapter 3 onwards it is a useful work, particularly in Part 2 on applications of fluid mechanics. Covers: fluid propoerties (very briefly!), Fluid statics (need the ability to do vectors to be able to do this chapter!), Fluid flow (calculus required!). Dimensional Similitude (this is cool stuff...), Fluid resistance, Compressible flow and Ideal fluid flow...comprise part 1. Part 2 is Fluid Measurement (ie. Weirs, Turbulence, viscosity, pressure, orifices...etc), Turbomachinery, Closed conduit flow, Open channel flow (not bad either), unsteady flow (good old waterhammer! How to stop water hammer when you turn on a tap/faucet...turn on another one at the same time of the same heat- hot or cold!) and some appendices on mathematical techniques: SImpsons rule, Bisection method, Newton-Raphson, Runge-Kutta and physical propoerties of some fluids. Answers (not worked) are provided from even numbered questions. Put it this way: if you can work through this book then you KNOW you understand fluid mechanics, so in that respect it gets a third star: it's a good yardstick of your ability. But for all that it is very disheartening, as it always is, to learn that one may not be a clever as one things one is and this is a book to expose shortcomings such as these. COnsider a challenge book: like everest...see the hill take the hill and then jeer it because you've bested it. Guess this book just takes that kind of person: pesistant, dogged and damn sure not to let it beat them. If you're a casual learner or not so keen on challenger yourself with something so tragic as fluid mechanics...avoid this book like the plague because you'll waste your money and probably damage something when you hurl the book with frustration! Hope that helps...:)
not that bad...

A good book for fluid mechanics
Not good.... In equation developments, it uses cartesian coordinates in a funky way.It changes them!This might not be a problem, but this book uses coordinate systems that don't follow the right-hand rule.For me this was very disturbing, because throughout my education the right-hand rule for coordinate systems was God's word. Another thing is the example problems.When the book shows you the solution, it jumps right into numbers, without even showing you the symbolic development, or what numbers represent what variables.It expects you to infer this from the units! N.B. I've only read the first 50 pages or so of this book, and my frustration led me to write this review.My opinions aren't supported with a complete sense of the book.Then again, the fact that even the elementary, development part of the book frustrates me could show just how bad this book will become in the latter parts.
it is too superficial book. |

Editorial Review Product Description Particular emphasis is given to providing a sound physical understanding of fluid flow and its engineering applications. Relevant mathematical techniques are also covered. Students are introduced systematically to the subject, the text moving from the simple to the complex, from the familiar to the unfamiliar. SI units are used throughout and there are many worked examples. The breadth of coverage of this edition is similar to that of the previous edition, but the content has been fully revised and updated, and several new topics are introduced for the first time. For professors, a solutions manual is available to accompany this text. Customer Reviews (1)

Editorial Review Product Description The ability to understand the area of fluid mechanics is enhanced by using equations to mathematically model those phenomena encountered in everyday life. Helping those new to fluid mechanics make sense of its concepts and calculations, Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Fourth Edition makes learning a visual experience by introducing the types of problems that students are likely to encounter in practice – and then presenting methods to solve them. A time-tested book that has proven useful in various fluid mechanics and turbomachinery courses, this volume assumes knowledge of calculus and physics in its use of mathematics to model physical principles in fluid mechanics. Among its many useful features, this book: The author includes open-ended chapter-end problems designed to systematically improve the students’ ability to understand and apply the equations of fluid mechanics to various practical problems associated with scenarios such as flow from a draining coffee pot or drag force exerted on a bicycle-rider combination. Problems are arranged so that the easier ones are presented first, to build students’ confidence and aid learning, and these problems are grouped by topic, making them easier to use for both instructors and students. With an abundance of new material, this book is a thorough and comprehensible presentation of fluid mechanics from a practical viewpoint, rather than an encyclopedic and inaccessible volume. |

Good
Great Condition
Inaccessible That said, this book can be salvaged for a class by aprofessor who is skilled at conveying concepts (rather than justequations.)I also suspect this book would be useful as a reference forthose who have already learned the fundamental material.However, Irecommend that the novice look elsewhere for a satisfactory introduction tofluid mechanics.
Pedagogically logical;ordered progression of concepts
Adequate coverage of chemical engineering fluid mechanics |
