Product Description

Review

"Excellent clear discussions of Fluids. Very good examples." Dr Tim Gough, University of Bradford, UK

"I've always used this text. I find it very comprehensive, with a logical layout, and pictched at a level that can be used by an undergraduate student, regardless of the level that they are at." Mr. Gerard Nagle, Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland

Product Description

The sixth edition of this established, popular textbook provides an excellent and comprehensive treatment of fluid mechanics that is concisely written and supported by numerous worked examples.

This revision of a classic text presents relevant material for mechanical and civil engineers, as well as energy and environmental services engineers. It recognises the evolution of the subject and provides thorough coverage of both established theory and emerging topics.

Fluid Mechanicsis ideal for use throughout a first degree course in all engineering disciplines where a good understanding of the subject is required.

New sections on rotodynamic machine interaction, contaminant concentration prediction and water reuse responses to the drought consequences of climate change.

Extended website includes enhanced and additional simulations.

Reworking an old classic 30 April 2012

By MartinLodge

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

With the death of the final of the original authors, John Swaffield, the challenge will be to ensure that any subsequent editions are as well authored. I recently bought when my 1982 version (edition 1) fell to pieces. The text is largely unchanged in the fundamentals but has, over the years, added environmental FM and, of course, CFD. It retains its original clarity although there are some editorial and printing glitches: misreferencing the occasional equation and section or example. I was also disappointed that a few pages had been spoilt by poor print quality. The larger format (18 x 24 cm) and glossy, thin paper may work for students but, for professionals using as a reference, the old black & white was better - the loss of photo quality being the main problem in B&W. So, overall, 4 stars - but only because of the production failings; 5 stars to the content.
