Description

Book Details

Now in full color with an engaging new design, Applied Fluid Mechanics, Seventh Edition, is the fully updated edition of the most popular applications-oriented approach to engineering fluid mechanics. It offers a clear and practical presentation of all basic principles of fluid mechanics (both statics and dynamics), tying theory directly to real devices and systems used in mechanical, chemical, civil, and environmental engineering. The 7th edition offers new real-world example problems and integrates the use of an online downloadable demo of world-renowned PIPE-FLO® software for piping system analysis and design. It presents new procedures for problem-solving and design; more realistic and higher quality illustrations; and more coverage of many topics, including hose, plastic pipe, tubing, pumps, viscosity measurement devices, and computational fluid mechanics. Full-color images and color highlighting make charts, graphs, and tables easier to interpret organize narrative material into more manageable “chunks,” and make all of this text’s content easier to study.

About the Author

Robert Mott is the original author of this book, with its first edition appearing in 1970. He was the sole author of the first six editions before inviting Professor Untener to be the co-author of the seventh edition. Bob has significant industry experience, along with work through the University of Dayton Research Institute and in industrial consulting and accident reconstruction and analysis. At the University of Dayton School of Engineering, he was on the faculty of the Department of Engineering Technology for 35 years prior to retirement, serving as both department chair and associate dean. In addition to this book, he is the author of Machine Elements in Mechanical Designand Applied Strength of Materials, both of which are in the sixth editions. He was the sole author of the first five editions and took on co-authors for the sixth editions.
