Fluid Mechanics: An Introduction to the Theory of Fluid Flows by Franz DurstEnglish | PDF | 2008 | 727 Pages | ISBN : 3540713425 | 11.2 MB
Advancements of fluid flow measuring techniques and of computational methods have led to new ways to treat laminar and turbulent flows. These methods are extensively used these days in research and engineering practise. This also requires new ways to teach the subject to students at higher educational institutions in an introductory manner. The book provides the knowledge to students in engineering and natural science needed to enter fluid mechanics applications in various fields. Analytical treatments are provided, based on the Navier-Stokes equations. Introductions are also given into numerical and experimental methods applied to flows.
