ABOUT THE BOOK

Engineering Fluid Mechanics - The International Student Edition written by W.P.Graebel, Professor Emeritus, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics The University of Michigan is published by Taylor and Francis Publishers, New York - London. This text covers the necessary material for an introductory course in fluid mechanics. There is sufficient material presented that it could serve as a text for a second course as well. The text is designed to emphasize the physical aspects of fluid mechanics and to develop analytical skills and attitudes in the engineering student. Example problems follow most presentations of theory to ensure that the student grasps the implications of the theory and is able to apply it. In topics that involve more than elementary calculations, step-by-step processes outline the procedure used so as to generalize the students’ problem-solving skills. To demonstrate the design process beyond the problem-solving techniques, an appendix presents some of the more general considerations involved in the design process. Frequent references to applications throughout the text, as well as an appendix on the history of fluid mechanics has been included.

The subject matter is organized in the following manner

•          Chapters 1 and 2 serve as an introduction to the subject . Terms and concepts are defined and the student is given practice with pressure calculations. A general procedure for attacking engineering problems is suggested.

•          Chapter 3 is really the heart of the book. The concept of control volume is presented, along with the fundamental equations of continuity, momentum, and energy. These presentations are for one-dimensional analysis.

•          Chapter 4 extends this theory to three dimensions with the development of the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. I have included some simple solutions of these equations, which is not traditional for textbooks at this level. I have done so because I feel that without applications, development of the theory leaves the typical undergraduate student with rather a “so-what” feeling. This chapter can either be presented following Chapter 3 or delayed to a later portion of the course, depending on the instructor’s goals. Some instructors may wish to omit it completely.

•          Chapter 5 considers the subject of dimensional analysis and provides a road map to the chapters that follow.

•          Chapters 6 and 7 develop elementary viscous flow theory and general Reynolds number effects. Chapter 6 deals exclusively with laminar flows, and Chapter 7 with turbulent flows. In pipe flow calculations I have supplemented the traditional Moody diagram with two others, so that the student can solve problems directly and avoid having to deal with trial-and-error solutions of pipe flow problems.

•          Chapter 8 deals with open channel flows and Froude number effects. For courses that focus on such flows, it could follow chapter 3 directly.

•          Chapter 9 deals with compressible flows and Mach number effects. The material starts with a general discussion of compressibility, then goes to a brief discussion of compressibility effects in liquids before finishing with a discussion of compressibility in gases.

•          Chapter 10 gives a summary of measurement techniques suitable for fluid flows, and Chapter 11 discusses aspects of hydraulic machines.

•          The concluding chapter points out some of the more advanced topics in fluid mechanics, and indicates to the student the type of courses that might be useful in developing further interest in fluid mechanics.
