Boundary-Layer Theory

Mcgraw-Hill Series in Aeronautical and Aerospace Engineering

by Herrmann Schlichting, K. Gersten

A new edition of the almost legendary textbook by Schlichting completely revised by Klaus Gersten is now available. This book presents a comprehensive overview of boundary-layer theory and its application to all areas of fluid mechanics, with emphasis on the flow past bodies (e.g. aircraft aerodynamics). It contains the latest knowledge of the subject based on a thorough review of the literature over the past 15 years. Yet again, it will be an indispensable source of inexhaustible information for students of fluid mechanics and engineers alike.

I understood boundary layer by this book. i guess every fluid engineer should study it.

[Sanat]

Very good book for the reader who is interested in study of turbulent boundary layer and hydrodynamic stability of flow.

[Emmanuel Obison]

This saved me in fluid dynamics. Thank youuuu

[Saad]

Best book I have ever read.

[Farhad]

Strongly recommended to all the fluids transport students.

[Dulini]

A good read for anyone who is in to turbulence in fluids
