Fundamentals of Thermal-Fluid Sciences, Sixth Edition, is an
abbreviated version of standard thermodynamics, fluid mechanics,
and heat transfer texts, covering topics that the majority of
engineering students will need in their professional lives. The
text is well-suited for curriculums that have a common introductory
course or a two-course sequence on thermal-fluid sciences. The book
addresses tomorrow's engineers in a simple, yet precise manner, and
it leads students toward a clear understanding and firm grasp of
the basic principles of thermal-fluid sciences. Special effort has
been made to appeal to readers' natural curiosity and to help
students explore the various facets of the exciting subject area of
thermal-fluid sciences. To enhance student reading, the sixth
edition now includes SmartBook (R) 2.0. SmartBook 2.0-Our adaptive
reading experience has been made more personal, accessible,
productive, and mobile.
Cengel and Cimbala's Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals and
Applications, communicates directly with tomorrow's engineers in a
simple yet precise manner, while covering the basic principles and
equations of fluid mechanics in the context of numerous and diverse
real-world engineering examples. The text helps students develop an
intuitive understanding of fluid mechanics by emphasizing the
physics, using figures, numerous photographs and visual aids to
reinforce the physics. The highly visual approach enhances the
learning of fluid mechanics by students. This text distinguishes
itself from others by the way the material is presented - in a
progressive order from simple to more difficult, building each
chapter upon foundations laid down in previous chapters. In this
way, even the traditionally challenging aspects of fluid mechanics
can be learned effectively. McGraw-Hill's Connect, is also
available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only
integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously
adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it,
how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect
allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily
and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's
work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may
also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students'
learning along if they experience difficulty.
