Solved Practical Problems in Fluid Mechanics

Contains Fluid Flow Topics Relevant to Every EngineerBased on the principle that many students learn more effectively by using solved problems, Solved Practical Problems in Fluid Mechanics presents a series of worked examples relating fluid flow concepts to a range of engineering applications. This text integrates simple mathematical approaches tha

Carl Schaschke, Ph.D., is a chemical engineer and head of the School of Science, Engineering, and Technology at Abertay University (Dundee, Scotland). He previously served as head of the Department of Chemical and Process Engineering at the University of Strathclyde (Glasgow, Scotland) for eight years. Prior to pursuing a Ph.D. in chemical engineering, Dr. Schaschke worked in the nuclear reprocessing industry at Sellafield (Cumbria, United Kingdom). In addition, his research interests are in the thermophysical measurement of substances under extreme pressure, he has taught fluid mechanics to undergraduates, and he has published several books.
