Applied Fluid Mechanics

by Robert L. Mott

For undergraduate-level courses in Fluid Mechanics or Hydraulics in Mechanical, Chemical, and Civil Engineering Technology and Engineering programs. The most popular applications-oriented approach to engineering technology fluid mechanics, this text covers all of the basic principles of fluid mechanics-both statics and dynamics-in a clear, practical presentation that ties theory directly to real devices and systems used in chemical process industries, manufacturing, plant engineering, waste water handling and product design. Readable and clearly written, the new 6th edition brings a much more attractive appearance to the book and includes many updates and additional features.

Genres: Engineering, Textbooks

Reviews

My head hurts and my ears seem to bleed from this one. I've come to the conclusion that my math level just wasn't high enough to completely grasp the concepts of fluid dynamics. Despite my misgivings, I think this is a very good book.

Es un excelente libro sobre el tema, pero me disgustó un poco la cantidad de ejercicios que tiene focalizados en el sistema de unidad de USA. Es cierto que hay muchos con el sistema SI, pero hay muchos con el otro, que no se usa tanto.
Igual, es muy útil.

La primera parte es una belleza. Está bien organizada y contiene explicaciones sencillas pero completas. Es una lástima que después de ahí (alrededor del capítulo 5) se vuelve mucho más desordenado, repetitivo y confuso. Tuve que buscar otro libro.

This was a very useful reference book and I have kept it for future use. The only thing it needed was more example problems.
