Summary

Summary

Helps students develop an orderly approach to problem solving by starting from basic equations, stating assumptions clearly and relating results to expected physical behavior. Many detailed example problems demonstrate good solution techniques and explain troublesome points of theory. Updated and expanded with increased coverage of relevant topics, more example and homework problems and new sections on supersonic channel flow and fluid machinery.
