Are You Ready to See Fluid Mechanics In Action? This text comes with a free Fluid Mechanics Phenomena CD-ROM that brings fluid mechanics to life! It contains a series of short video segments that illustrate various aspects of real-world fluid mechanics. Many of the segments show how fluid motion is related to familiar devices and everyday experiences. Each segment also clearly indicates the key fluid mechanics topic being demonstrated and provides a description of the content. Throughout the text you'll find a special video icon that will let you know when it is appropriate to view a particular video clip. The numbering system will indicate which clip is relevant to the fluid mechanics concepts and theory under discussion. Also Available: The Student Solutions Manual-Easy-to-use study tool with detailed solutions to Review Problems found at the end of each chapter in the text.

The most thorough but easy to understand textbook that I have used so far in my Degree This is easily go to be one of the best books that I have ever used for a core Mechanical Engineering subject. In each chapter the explanation of content is very thorough and the examples are explained in reference to the text, unlike some textbooks that skip steps or do not explain algebraic signs. It also has many sections explaining the real life relevance of the content and all the examples are very beneficial to improving your understanding. Additionally there are videos that demonstrate certain... more info
Fast Delivery, New Condition, Consistently Satisfied This is exactly the text I needed (because of course, no one's going to order Fundamentals of Fluid Mech. by accident). I ordered directly from Amazon with this one, as opposed to one of Amazon's associated vendors. Because I ordered from Amazon, I received the book a day or two ahead of their projection (which is typical), and the book was packaged with care to preserve its new condition (which is also typical). I plan to order some other texts from Amazon very soon, and do not mind paying the extra $4 or... more info
Fluid Reading The material is broken down in a manageable fashion. It can get a little too mathematical sometimes with all the proofs, but overall is effective in explaining difficult concepts. The videos off the accompanied student site i find are very helpful but the rest of the stuff off that site i have yet to use. Overall not a bad book to use for a topic that get real messy (especially in lab).
Good Book Great book, easy to follow and a lot of good information. Was a lot of help getting through the class.
