Synopsis

An introduction to fluid mechanics. Example problems with detailed solutions are provided throughout the text, they include everyday situations which allow the reader to gain confidence in solving problems and reinforce the concept that fluid mechanics is an important part of our world. The book also features approximately 560 homework problems including traditional and computer and extended laboratory problems. This variety allows the instructor to choose problems for discussion to fit their teaching style. A complete detailed solution manual is available. This includes the problem statement, figure and worked solution.

Quatrième de couverture

Stay Focused on the Fundamentals Concise and focused these are the two guiding principles of Young, Munson, and Okiishi’s Second Edition of A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics. With this compact, student–friendly text, readers can master fundamental concepts, without getting lost in peripheral material. The authors clearly present basic analysis techniques and address practical concerns and applications, such as pipe flow, open–channel flow, flow measurement, and drag and lift. Homework problems in every chapter including open–ended problems, problems based on the CD–ROM videos, laboratory problems, and computer problems emphasize the practical application of principles. And more than 100 worked examples provide detailed solutions to a variety of problems. The Second Edition offers several new features and enhancements, including:

• A new CD–ROM, presenting video segments of fluid flow phenomena
• Many new homework problems
• A new chapter on turbo machines

Experience fluid flow phenomena in action on a new CD–ROM! A new Fluid Mechanics Phenomena CD–ROM, package with this text, presents videos of more than 70 real–life fluid mechanics situations. Throughout the text, icons will lead you to relevant video segments. You’ll also find many new end–of–chapter problems that are directly related to the videos.
