Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Lots of example problems.

⭐This book helped me get through my Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics classes. Really helps to clarify topics discussed in other text books. I still use this a a reference when i need to look up or clarify something.

⭐Not as advertised- picture shows first edition – I was provided the second addition copyright 1962 printed on acid paper show considerable yellowing – long delivery time and wait

⭐not for chemical engineers

⭐Material in this book covered every imaginable aspect of fluid mechanics. You have to have some basic knowledge in FM before going through this book. Great for engineers taking the Civil Professional (PE) exam, great for engineering students and even designers.

⭐Would do business with this seller again. Delivered within the week of ordering, and merchandise in absolute new condition. Thank you.

⭐I am not a mechanical engineer. Instead, I am an electrical engineer who took an undergraduate fluid mechanics class last fall to help with some graphical simulation work I was doing. However, I still had to pass the same examinations and do the same homework as the other students who did have a mechanical engineering background, and I found this outline immensely helpful. This book is an excellent source of problem-solving techniques and exercises for anyone who is taking an undergraduate course in fluid mechanics, which is the branch of science concerned with how fluids behave at rest or in motion. This outline assumes that you are already familiar with statics and with calculus, and it makes heavy use of both subjects. There is not a lot of verbal explanation in this outline. Explanation is done mainly through the introduction of some formulas, and then some completely worked out examples using those formulas. It is not at all dry in its presentation, however, and makes heavy and appropriate use of instructive figures and diagrams. Fluid mechanics is about solving problems, and the most difficult part is analyzing the system and reducing it to a series of equations. Once this has been achieved there are a number of standard methods that can be used to solve them. This book gives a good amount of practice at allowing the student to figure out how to approach larger problems in chapters 8 through 10 – “Flow in Closed Conduits”, “Complex Pipeline Systems”, and “Flow in Open Channels”, and also in the final chapter of the outline “Fluid Machinery”. This book is a great companion to Munson’s “Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics”, which is the best textbook on the subject that I have encountered.

⭐Like all of the Schaum guides for subjects in Mechanical Engineering, this outline provides a good overview of fluid mechanics, but it doesn’t go into a great deal of depth. It’s easy to find the equations if you want to use the book as a reference manual or a study guide, and the problems can serve as a good supplement to an undergraduate class in Fluids.
