Fluid Mechanics
Pearson Education Limited (Verlag)
978-0-273-71772-0 (ISBN)
This revision of a classic text presents relevant material for mechanical and civil engineers, as well as energy and environmental services engineers. It recognises the evolution of the subject and provides thorough coverage of both established theory and emerging topics.
Fluid Mechanicsis ideal for use throughout a first degree course in all engineering disciplines where a good understanding of the subject is required.
New sections on rotodynamic machine interaction, contaminant concentration prediction and water reuse responses to the drought consequences of climate change.
Extended website includes enhanced and additional simulations.
Dr John Douglas, formerly of South Bank University, London. Dr Janusz Gasiorek, formerly of South Bank University, London where he led the Fluid Mechanics group in Mechanical Engineering, with specialist research interest in rotodynamic machinery and fan engineering. Professor John Swaffield , Emeritus Professor, Heriot–Watt University, has taught fluid mechanics for over 30 years with specialist research in pressure transients, free surface unsteady flows and water conservation. Dr Lynne Jack, Heriot-Watt University, Reader in energy systems and associated environmental impacts, with research interests in unsteady flow modelling and the implications for the built environment of climate change.
