The latest edition of the classic introduction to fluid dynamics
This textbook offers a detailed study of fluid dynamics. Equal emphasis is given to physical concepts, mathematical methods, and illustrative flow patterns. The book begins with a precise and careful formulation of physical concepts followed by derivations of the laws governing the motion of an arbitrary fluid, the Navier-Stokes equations. Throughout, there is an emphasis on scaling variables and dimensional analysis. Incompressible flow is presented as an asymptotic expansion of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations with low Mach numbers and arbitrary Reynolds numbers. The different physical behaviors of flows with low, medium, and high Reynolds number are thoroughly investigated. Additionally, several special introductory chapters are provided on lubrication theory, flow stability, and turbulence.
In the Fifth Edition, a chapter on gas dynamics has been added. Gas dynamics is presented as Navier-Stokes solutions for high Reynolds Number at arbitrary Mach number with a perfect gas as the fluid. The existence of several excellent, and free, compressible flow calculators on the internet has been used in the presentation and the homework. With this chapter the textbook becomes a survey of the entire field of fluid dynamics.
Readers of the Fifth Edition of Incompressible Flow will also find:
- New content treating wind turbines
- Examples and end-of-chapter problems to reinforce learning
- MATLAB codes available for download
Incompressible Flow is ideal for undergraduate and graduate students in advanced fluid mechanics classes, and for any engineer or researcher studying fluid dynamics or related subjects.
Ronald L. Panton, PhD, is J.H. Herring Centennial Professor Emeritus in Engineering at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Texas, Austin, USA. He was previously active as an engineer both in industry?with North American Aviation?and while on active duty with the US Air Force. He is also a Fellow of the Fluid Dynamics Division of the American Physical Society and of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
