This distinctive text presents the basic principles of fluid mechanics by means of one-dimensional flow examples - differing significantly in style and content from other books.
A Primer in Fluid Mechanics contains:
an overview of fluid properties and the kinetic theory of gasesinformation on the fundamental equations of fluid mechanics, including historical references and background informationintroductory discussions on fluid properties and fluid staticsa comprehensive chapter on compressible flowa variety of applications on non-steady flow, including non-steady gas dynamicsa brief introduction to acoustics
Novel provisos in the text includean analysis of the static stability of a floating two-dimensional parabolic sectionviscous flow through an elastic ductseveral geometries in non-steady tank draining, including a singular perturbation problem
Chapters also discuss physical properties, atmospheric stability, thermodynamics, energy and momentum equations, dimensional analysis, and historical perspectives of flows in pipes and conduits.
A Primer in Fluid Mechanics offers a rigorous text for the curious student and for the research engineer seeking a readily available guide to the more refined treatments in the literature - supporting classical and current discussions as well as theoretical and practical concepts.
