Features: This book is a key textbook for the "Nineth Five-Year Plan" of the Ministry of Education in the field of general higher education. It is a revised and reprinted edition of the book "Engineering Fluid Mechanics" published in 1992, which originally won the First Prize of the National Excellent Teaching Material Award. This book emphasizes strengthening fundamental theories, focusing on the connection between theory and practice, and strives to cultivate students' ability to analyze and solve problems using basic theories. The book consists of fourteen chapters, including Introduction, Fluid Statics, Fluid Kinematics, Fundamentals of Ideal Fluid Dynamics, Vortex Theory Fundamentals, Ideal Fluid Plane Potential Flow, Viscous Fluid Dynamics, Fundamentals of Flow Similarity Principles, Fluid Motion Resistance and Losses, Pipe Hydraulics Calculations, Viscous Fluid Flow Around Objects, Fundamentals of One-Dimensional Gas Dynamics, Plane Flow of Compressible Fluids, and Fluid Element Measurement. Each chapter includes numerous examples and exercises for selection. The content of each chapter and its interrelationships are both interconnected and independent. By appropriately selecting and combining them, the book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in energy and power engineering, mechanical engineering, and related fields, as well as for reference by undergraduate and graduate students in relevant disciplines and engineering professionals.
