Description

By explaining basic equations, stating assumptions and then relating results to expected physical behavior, this new edition will help students to develop a systematic, orderly approach to problem solving. Aimed at an introductory course covering the basic elements of fluid mechanics, the study contains new material on fluid machinery, supersonic channel flow and more current data for real situations.
