Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This edition aims to provide a broad-based approach to the study of fluid flow together with more advanced treatment of specialist topics that find application within the design and analysis of flow systems. It contains material on rotodynamic machinery, fans in ventilation and the ventilation of tunnels by jet fans. A new chapter dealing with the mechanisms of mechanical and natural ventilation is also included to provide one of the most common applications for fan technology.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
