Applied Fluid Mechanics: Sixth Edition by Merle C. Potter Hardcover Book

Description: Applied Fluid Mechanics by Merle C. Potter, David C. Wiggert Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description The content presented in this book is especially designed for civil engineering students, with detailed text on open channel flow, piping systems, turbomachinery, and for mechanical engineering students, with detailed text on the potential flow, external flows including boundary-layer theory and compressible flow. Publisher Description This textbook can be used for the second required course in fluid mechanics. It can be used for the mechanical engineering or civil engineering programs. This book reviews the more conventional elemental approach for pipe flow, channel flow, and flow between cylinders. It discusses the derivation and application of the Navier-Stokes equations to several flow situations. The content presented in this book is especially designed for civil engineering students, with detailed text on open channel flow, piping systems, turbomachinery, and for mechanical engineering students, with detailed text on the potential flow, external flows including boundary-layer theory and compressible flow. The text is designed to allow students to better understand each topic, aided by numerous examples and home problems. Students often find it quite difficult to understand many concepts encountered in fluid mechanics, such as laminar flow, the entrance region, the separated region, and turbulence. The book ensures that these concepts are presented correctly and in an easy-to-understand format. This book also presents all derivations and phenomena in such a way that they are more easily understood when compared with the presentations of other textbooks. Author Biography Dr. Merle Potter joined Michigan State University in 1965 after earning his Ph.D. in Engineering Mechanics from the University of Michigan; he also earned degrees in Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering. He also spent two summers at each of the following research facilities: Stanford University, NASA Glenn Research Center, and DOEs Oak Ridge National Lab. He conducted research in fluid mechanics and energy analysis in buildings. He has received research grants that supported both M.S. and Ph.D. theses. He developed both undergraduate and graduate courses in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, and applied mathematics. As chairman of the colleges curriculum committee, he led the college to develop a new undergraduate program in Applied Engineering Sciences. He has authored/co-authored over 30 books including 7 textbooks, 5 Schaums Outlines, and numerous exam review books for engineers. He is a recipient of numerous awards including the James Harry Potter Gold Medal. Dr. David Wiggert received his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1967, specializing in fluid mechanics and hydraulics. In 1970, he joined the faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Michigan State University, where he taught and conducted research in hydraulic transients associated with free-surface flows and with pipeline systems. In addition, he conducted contamination studies in groundwater systems. Both M.S. and Ph.D. students as well as visiting scholars were supported in the research endeavors. Along with co-investigators he received the J.C. Stevens Award, American Society of Civil Engineers, and the L.F. Moody Award, American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
