Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics, 9th Edition offers comprehensive topical coverage, with varied examples and problems, application of the visual component of fluid mechanics, and a strong focus on effective learning. The authors have designed their presentation to enable the gradual development of reader confidence in problem solving. Each important concept is introduced in easy-to-understand terms before more complicated examples are discussed. The 9th Edition includes new coverage of finite control volume analysis and compressible flow, as well as a selection of new problems. Continuing this important work's tradition of extensive real-world applications, each chapter includes The Wide World of Fluids case study boxes in each chapter. In addition, there are a wide variety of videos designed to enhance comprehension, support visualization skill building and engage students more deeply with the material and concepts.
