Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Sixth Edition

Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Sixth Edition, is intended for a first course in Fluid Mechanics, as taken by a range of engineering majors. Beginning with dimensions, units, and fluid properties, the text continues with explanation of key equations and coverage of the control-volume approach. Step-by-step examples focus on everyday situations, and applications such as flow with friction through pipes and tubes, flow past objects, open channel flow, compressible flow, and turbomachinery are featured. Design projects give readers a sense of what they'll encounter in industry, and experimental methods and data are covered. A Solutions Manual and Figure Slides are available for instructors.
