Engineering Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machines


Book Description

This textbook attempts to cover all the topics concerning fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics and Hydraulic Machines, keeping in view the requirements of undergraduate engineering students of all branches. Beginning with fundamentals, advanced topics are discussed towards the end of each chapter. This book written in SI System of units should be a single guiding reference material for most university examinations, AMIE and other competitive examinations. While dealing with various aspects, emphasis is on showing a physical picture of the situation with the help of diagrams.




Hydraulics And Fluid Mechanics Including Hydraulics Machines


Book Description

The popularity of all the earlier thirteen editions of the book among the students as well as the teachers has made it possible to bring out the fourteenth edition of the book so soon. In this edition the book has been brought out in A-4 size thereby considerably enhancing the general get-up of the book. The book in this fourteenth edition is entirely in SI Units and it has been thoroughly revised in the light of the valuable suggestions received from the learned professors and the students of the various Universities. Accordingly several new articles have been added. The answers of all the illustrative examples and the problems have been checked and corrected. Moreover, several new problems from the latest question papers of the different Universities as well as competitive examinations have been incorporated. Thus, it may be emphatically stated that the book is complete in all respects and it covers the entire syllabus in the subject for degree students in the different branches of engineering for almost all the Universities. Therefore this Single Book fulfills the entire needs of the students intending to appear at the various University Examinations and also for those intending to appear at the various competitive examination such as engineering services and the ICS examinations and for those preparing for AMIE examinations. OUTSTANDING FEATURES " Twenty nine chapters covering entire subject matter of Fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics and Hydraulic Machines. " SI Units used for the entire book " More than 200 multiple choice questions with answers " Appendix containing computer programs to solve problems of uniform and critical flows in open channels. " Ten appendixes dealing with some important topics.

A Textbook of Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machines


Book Description

Divided in two parts, “A Textbook of Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machines” is one of the most exhaustive texts on the subject for close to 20 years. For the students of Mechanical Engineering, it can easily be used as a reference text for other courses as well. Important topics ranging from Fluid Dynamics, Laminar Flow and Turbulent Flow to Hydraulic Turbines and Centrifugal pumps are well explained in this book. A total of 23 chapters (combined both units) followed by two special chapters of ‘Universities' Questions (Latest) with Solutions’ and ‘GATE and UPSC Examinations' Questions with Answers/Solutions’ after each unit also make it an excellent resource for aspirants of various entrance examinations.
