Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The two volumes of Solving Problems in Fluid Mechanics have become well established as the best available problem-based student-centred texts on the subject. They present a clear explanation of theory and application in the form of solutions to typical examination and assignment type questions
Includes index.
Introduction -- Static pressure and head -- Fluid pressure on surfaces -- Buoyancy and stability of floating bodies -- Liquids in relative equilibrium -- Liquids in motion -- Pitot tubes and constriction flow meters -- Flow measurement at notches and weirs -- Force exerted by a jet -- Losses of energy in pipelines -- Pipeline problems -- Transmission of power by pipeline -- Fluid friction, viscosity and oiled bearings -- Flow past a solid boundary -- Flow under varying head -- Uniform flow in open channels.
