Fundamentals of Fluid MechanicsA first course in fluid mechanics presenting the classical principles and supported by numerous analyses of fluid flow phenomena. Presents more material than can be covered in one term, so the instructor has flexibility in choice of topics. Employs both the British gravitational system and the International system of units. Contains over 160 examples worked out in detail, and over 1,200 homework problems. |
