Fluid Mechanics

Mcgraw-Hill Series in Mechanical Engineering

by Yunus A. Cengel, John M. Cimbala

Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals and Applications communicates directly with tomorrow's engineers in a simple yet precise manner. The text covers the basic principles and equations of fluid mechanics in the context of numerous and diverse real-world engineering examples. The text helps students develop an intuitive understanding of fluid mechanics by emphasizing the physics, and by supplying attractive figures, numerous photographs and visual aids to reinforce the physics.

اضافه کردن رفرنس‌های دانشگاه مخصوصا تو زمینه های غیر از علوم اجتماعی در گودریدز خیلی مرسوم نیست. ولی ازون جایی که کتابهای "سنجل" (مخصوصا کتاب انتقال حرارت و مکانیک سیالات) در ایران یه مقداری ناشناخته است، ‏به نظرم اومد معرفی و تبلیغش بد نباشه.‏
کتاب‌های ایشون متن بسیار روان، آسان و جذابی دارن و در خیلی جاها بعضی از تعاریف رو برای فهم بهتر از نو نوشته مثلا برای ترم "سرعت^2\2×شتاب جاذبه" در خط تراز هیدرولیکی اسم "هد سرعت" رو گذاشته با این تعریف که: هدف سرعت ارتفاعی است که نیاز است سیال برای رسیدن به سرعت مورد نظر در یک سقوط آزاد بدون اصطکاک داشته باشد. اگر زمینه کاریتون مربوط به مباحث انرژی و دینامیک سیالات میشه حتما یه نگاهی به کتابای ایشون بندازین

Etter å ha hatt fluidmekanikk 1 og 2 har jeg endelig lest mesteparten av denne boken. Lettlest lærebok med interessante innslag av fluidmekanikkens historie.

[Yousseif Abdellatif · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and honest: Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals and Applications [with Student Resources DVD] is a moving, uneven book with moments of real beauty. What worked: precise, tender descriptions of ordinary days and a heroine you'd want as a neighbor. What didn't: the middle sags and a few scenes feel stretched. Recommend for patient, reflective readers, skip for anyone who wants a quick read.

It is the best book you can find to learn all about fluid mechanics -especially if you are a chemical engineering major.

Cuesta trabajo entenderlo

Don’t bother

This doesn’t include images or diagrams and is just not formatter properly to be at all useful. Don’t bother. Ugh.

The concepts are explained in an attractive manner, by use of visual aids such as images which help to grasp them easily. Also, they have explained how the fluid mechanics have been evolved till today and the reader is left excited about the future scope of research and applications in this subject.

Although at a lower level(mathematical) than other books with similar approach(like Munson's), it offers intuition and has good examples. It offers the physical explanations to nearly every mathematical description of a phenomenon, but it does not go the extra mile to delve into some subtle themes, something that would be very useful for a physics major student. But for engineering students it is the ideal book.

i like to read fm

A great book! With a communicative way of explaining the shopisticated fluid-mechanics-things, I can both understand and laugh at certain parts. Wish me an A in fluid mechanics!

[Zhang Stanley]

Skipped a few chapters and certain section as they are not tested.
But reading this give me a better understanding of fluid dynamics and make you see the world in a different way.

Best book out there on the market

[Mohamed Ahmed Aboushama · Rating 4 out of 5]

The examples in this book is easy but not too much to explain the proof perfectly...

Deep! Makes you think a lot.
Pretty good pictures and examples.

[Daniel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Had good examples and was fairly easy to follow.
