Features: This textbook is designed for the Fluid Mechanics course (80-100 hours) for the Building Environment and Equipment Engineering program at universities nationwide. It is part of the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan" for civil engineering and architecture disciplines in higher education. The book covers topics such as fluid statics, one-dimensional fluid dynamics, ideal and viscous fluid dynamics, pipe flow resistance, fundamental theories of orifice and pipeline calculations, gas jets, similarity principles, and dimensional analysis. Each chapter includes exercises, and selected answers are provided at the end of the book. The content progresses from basic to advanced concepts, is easy to understand, emphasizes the development of foundational theories and skills, and strives for a complete and coherent structure with clear physical concepts and profound physical significance. This book can serve as a textbook for undergraduate students in Building Environment and Equipment Engineering, as well as a reference for students in related fields such as civil engineering, environmental science, and power engineering.
