  • Description

    This book provides the reader with a good foundation to understand fluid mechanics and apply that knowledge in the proliferating world of engineering science. The content has been rearranged and rejuvenated in such a way that each chapter introduces the topic and then familiarises the readers with all the associated principles and applications in a systematic manner.

    Salient Features

    • Introduction to fundamental concepts through elementary principles of continuum mechanics.
    • Thoroughly revised treatment of fundamental equations of conservation which includes both differential and integral approach based on control mass system and control volume formulation.
    • Expanded coverage of Fluid Kinematics with detailed description (both analytical and physical) of rotational flows, circulation, velocity potential and vortex flows.
    • Enhanced coverage of Boundary Layer, Turbulent Flows, Unsteady and Compressible Flows.
    • Complete derivation of the Navier Stokes equation in a concise and lucid manner.

    fluid mechanics ...through mathematics ...

    it is the best book for fluid mechanics . those who are preparing for GATE choose this one...classical problems and solutions are available, it has a good set of problems..Prof S K SOM explain concepts in mathematical way so readers need some basic concept in vector calculus and differential equation.

    Funda Clearing book

    This book is referred by some GATE toppers and now the faculties of my college that this book is really a funda clearing book for GATE/IES or any engineering student to clear the base concepts of FM....Books like Fluid Mech(FM) by F.M White sometimes become hard to understand due to some difficult words one can go through while reading..but for Indian Engg students its one of the best book by any indian author one can go through

    IT'S A BOOK OF BEST LEVEL IN INDIA AMONGST MANY FLUID MECHANICS BOOK.

    The title is above write is with first encounter of book with me.Every graduate engineer find this book very helpful if he/she read the book with enthusiasm.it's not only the book of theory but the numericals are touch your nervous system.if i take an example of theory many other book give the many kinds of formulae which is doing nothing but confuse your brain,like there is basically only one type of manometers and the concept is pressure difference in vertical directions but many books giv...

    One of the best book of Fluid Mechanics

    If your aim is not just pass the course but to make your fundamentals VERY STRONG, I suggest this book. Every topic is covered very beautifully. For example in first chapter if you see the definition of fluid is defined technically in a very beautiful manner. And no words for its dynamics part: Equations are derived and explained nicely. Each and every part of equation is explained with its physical meaning. Very practical examples are used to make reader thorough in the subject. Nice reading...

    A good book for the reference

    *This book is highly narrative and detailed.

    *Not recommended for the last night study as the information is too overwhelming for last night study. Many places, the authors have themselves pointed out that reading that particular section is not important and may be omitted without loss of continuity.

    *Solved examples are few but good.

    * Highly recommended for people, who want to take their Fluid Mech skills to next level and for getting extra edge in competitive examinations.

    * Also rec...
