A Brief Introduction To Fluid Mechanics, 5th Edition by Authors (Bruce R. Munson, Donald F. Young, Theodore H. Okiishi, Wade W. Huebsch) gives a brief introduction to the subject of fluid mechanics and is widely used by students in their classes as well as engineers in the field to gain more knowledge about it. This book presents basic terms and definitions, explains how mechanical forces influence the motion of fluids, and shows how complex flows can be broken down into simple motions that result from those forces on individual particles in the flow field.
Overview About “A Brief Introduction To Fluid Mechanics, 5th Edition”
Fluid mechanics is a self-contained introduction to fluid motion and it’s an important role in many aspects of science and engineering. It begins with basic concepts such as conservation laws and ideal incompressible fluids and then proceeds to viscosity, compressibility, instabilities, turbulence, free and forced vibrations of fluid columns, waves in deep water basins; acoustics; magnetohydrodynamics; flows around bluff bodies at moderate speeds; heat transfer by conduction in fins or plumes; duct flows of compressible fluids including shocks; rotating flows such as boundary layers on curved surfaces or cylinders; impact phenomena including hydrodynamic pressures for very high speeds or supersonic flow past very small projectiles.
Reviews About “A Brief Introduction To Fluid Mechanics, 5th Edition”
One of my favorite mechanical engineering books is A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 5th Edition by Authors (Bruce R. Munson, Donald F. Young, Theodore H. Okiishi, Wade W. Huebsch). This book covers fundamental concepts in fluid mechanics and provides examples of topics like laminar and turbulent flow that are very useful in fluid dynamics applications such as wind tunnels or hydraulic systems used in aircraft and vehicles.
About the Authors
Bruce R. Munson obtained his Ph.D. from The University of Iowa in 1968 and is a retired full professor from Iowa State University where he was associate dean of engineering technology at ISU and was also director of graduate studies in mechanical engineering at ISU for three years before retiring in 1998. His research focus areas include thermal fluid sciences, computational fluid dynamics, and biomechanics. Dr. Munson has published approximately 150 technical articles and co-authored five textbooks including an undergraduate textbook with Wiley titled Principles of Mechanical Engineering, two undergraduate texts with McGraw Hill titled Heat Transfer: Fundamentals and Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals, Fluid Power Design Handbook with CRC Press/Taylor & Francis Group as well as Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics with Pearson/Prentice Hall. He is a registered professional engineer in California, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. In addition to engineering degrees from MIT and Iowa State University Dr.
