About the Book

"Incompressible Flow, Third Edition" is the updated and revised edition of Ronald Panton's classic text on fluid mechanics. Beginning with basic principles, this Third Edition patiently develops the maths and physics leading to major theories. The book provides a unified presentation of physics, mathematics, and engineering applications, along with a liberal supplement of helpful exercises and example problems. New features include chapters on the modern measurements of the pipe flow friction factor, expanded details on the mathematics of E2E2Y operator, the Jeffrey Hamel solution and its limits with Reynolds number, and more. Complete with new problems, solvable with such PC based calculation software as MathCAD and MATLAB, "Incompressible Flow, Third Edition" is a valuable resource for professionals in the mechanical, aerospace, civil, and chemical engineering fields.
