Features: This book is the 10th edition of "Fluid Mechanics and Its Engineering Applications" and is a classic textbook for learning fluid mechanics. Although it has been revised multiple times, the book retains its original style—illustrating fundamental concepts and principles of fluid mechanics by solving engineering problems. It explains fluid mechanics phenomena and principles in a simple and clear manner, rather than through complex mathematical derivations. In this new edition, the various topics of fluid mechanics—such as pipe flow, open-channel flow, unsteady flow, compressible flow, pumps, and turbines—are introduced even more clearly and comprehensively. The book is rich in content, with clear concepts and concise, easy-to-understand explanations. It includes numerous engineering examples, exercises, and problems. It can serve as an English textbook or main reference book for fluid mechanics courses in civil, hydraulic, environmental, mechanical, and related disciplines at higher technical and engineering colleges in China. It is also an extremely practical reference book for engineering professionals in the aforementioned fields.
