DESCRIPTION:
Written in an easy-to-follow format, this practical guide begins by reviewing basic principles and discussing fluid statics. Next, you'll dive into fluids in motion, integral and differential equations, dimensional analysis, and similitude. Internal, external, and compressible flows are also covered. Hundreds of worked examples and equations make it easy to understand the material, and end-of-chapter quizzes and two final exam, with solutions to all their problems, help reinforce learning. This hands-on, self-teaching text offers:Numerous figures to illustrate key concep

Worth it! Kevin C I got "Thermo-dynamics" for Dummies and this book to help me solve and understand some challenging problems outside my expertise at work and both books came in very handy. I think both would be great for someone who did not have to take a proper class in either, or like me, only academic work I had for both subjects was 1st year physics.Pre-req's: basic physics review; Calculus; or maybe some experience or understanding in basic hydraulics and pneumatics.. Shelly said Happy with it so far. The product was just what I thought what I was getting. Happy with it so far.. One Star Not helpful for understanding simple hydraulics and how they work
