This textbook for undergraduate/graduate courses in mechanical engineering studies the structure, techniques and results of fluid motion. It balances practical applications with math and physics. The book examines boundary layer theory with detailed coverage of laminar, steady-state and unsteady, and two-and three-dimensional viscous flows, laminar and turbulent flows, and high and low Reynolds numbers. Also included are examples and problems.
