Fluid Mechanics and Machinery is designed to serve as a textbook
for undergraduate and postgraduate students of mechanical and civil
engineering. It will also be useful for students of electrical,
aerospace, chemical, and production engineering. The book provides
an exhaustive coverage of the essential concepts of the mechanics
of fluids, both static as well as dynamic. In addition, it provides
an overview of the design and operation of various hydraulic
machines such as pumps and turbines. Beginning with an overview of
the properties of fluids, the book gives a detailed discussion on
topics such as fluid pressure and its measurement, principles of
buoyancy and flotation, and fluid statics, kinematics, and
dynamics. It then moves on to discuss dimensional analysis and flow
of fluids through orifices, mouthpieces, and pipes, and over
notches and weirs. More advanced topics such as vortex flow, impact
of jets, and flow of compressible fluids have been dealt with in
separate chapters. A thorough overview of the design and operation
of various fluid machines such as pumps and turbines is provided to
acquaint the readers with the practical applications of fluid
forces. Given the practical nature of the subject, a large number
of solved examples have been provided to help the students grasp
the fundamentals and apply them to real-life situations.
