Mcgraw-Hill Series in Mechanical Engineering

Fluid Mechanics [with Connect 1-Term Access Code]

Rate this book
White's Fluid Mechanics is praised for its thorough and accurate approach, student friendly writing style, and its concise yet accessible coverage. The electronic version of the text presents these features and more in a CD-ROM with expanded descriptions of certain tables and diagrams through links. The E-Text enhances the text's elegant and solid description of the fundamentals. This fourth edition includes the addition of over 500 new problems, divided categories of "applied problems," "comprehensive applied problems," "design projects," "word problems" and "FE (fundamentals of engineering exam) problems." The book also has an updated, modern design and includes many useful pedagogical and motivational aids such as a perforated "Key Equations Card," boxed equations, and opening chapter photos.

Almost all books in fluid mechanics for engineering undergraduates are more or less the same. The reason I chose to read this book (cover to cover by now having done teaching assistantship in solid mechanics multiple times) is that I picked it up in third semester for AML160 Mechanics of Fluids during undergrad in Mechanical Engineering at IIT Delhi. At that time I mostly ran through the examples for help in doing the course assignments. Over time, I got opportunities to read/describe various sections to students and I found that the book is very helpful in that. Hence, I would definitely recommend the book to not just students but instructors as well.

This is pretty much the same review as my review for Mechanics of Materials by Beer, DeWolf, and Johnston Jr..
