Fundamentals of Hydro- and Aeromechanics


Book Description

Prandtl''s pioneering experiments laid the basis for the use of theoretical hydromechanics and hydrodynamics in practical engineering problems. This volume presents Tietjens'' famous expansion of Prandtl''s lectures: statics and kinematics of liquids and gases, dynamics of non-viscous liquids. Proofs use vector analysis.




Applied Hydro- and Aeromechanics


Book Description

Prandtl was one of the great theorists of aerodynamics and this work has long been considered one of the finest introductory works in the field. Topics include flow through pipes, Prandtl's own work on boundary layers, drag, airfoil theory, and entry conditions for flow in a pipe.

Introduction to Theoretical Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics


Book Description

Formally published for the first time, Professor William R. Sears classic work, "Introduction to Theoretical Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics, "reflects many years of continual evolution as a course study guide at the Graduate School of Aeronautical Engineering at Cornell University, with updates prepared by his former students to enhance ease of use by todays students. Instructors will find this a superb textbook for a first course in ideal aerodynamics and/or hydrodynamics. Because Sears was a master of connecting mathematical concepts with physical fluid dynamic quantities, readers will find fundamental concepts directly connected to practical applications in the numerous step-by-step examples found throughout the book.
