Introduction to fluid mechanics - Robert W Fox

Fox, McDonald & Pritchard provide a balanced approach to fluid mechanics that arms students with a proven problemsolving methodology. Students will learn to adopt an orderly approach to solving problems.

• Providing a fresh look, new coauthor Philip J. Pritchard, of Manhattan College, has clarified and improved descriptions and explanations throughout the book.
• The text emphasizes the control volume concept to provide a practical problem solving approach that is theoretically inclusive.
• 116 detailed example problems illustrate important concepts; each problem is solved in complete detail to demonstrate good solution procedure.
• 45 example problems have associated
  Excel /workbooks that enable students to perform What if? scenarios when studying the examples; many of the workbooks can be modified to solve endofchapter problems.
• Students can use
  Excel
  to vary problems parameters to gain insight into the behavior of complex solutions.
• 1315 endofchapter problems, with varying degrees of difficulty, provide the opportunity to practice building problemsolving skills.
• The CD accompanying the text includes: special and/or advanced topic sections for further study that are not include in the printed text, 45 example problem workbooks in
  Excel , and A Brief Review of Microsoft
  Excel
  (an introduction to
  Excel's
  basic features, and such advanced features as
  Solver
  and macros).
