This textbook treats Hydro- and Fluid Dynamics the engineering science dealing with forces and energies generated by fluids in motion playing a vital role in everyday life. Practical examples include the flow motion in the kitchen sink the exhaust fan above the stove and the air conditioning system in our home. When driving a car the air flow around the vehicle body induces some drag which increases with the square of the car speed and contributes to excess fuel consumption. Engineering applications encompass fluid transport in pipes and canals energy generation environmental processes and transportation (cars ships aircrafts). This book deals with the topic of applied hydrodynamics. The lecture material is grouped into two complementary sections: ideal fluid flow and real fluid flow. The former deals with two- and possibly three-dimensional fluid motions that are not subject to boundary friction effects while the latter considers the flow regions affected by boundary friction and turbulent shear. The lecture material is designed as an intermediate course in fluid dynamics for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students in Civil Environmental Hydraulic and Mechanical Engineering. It is supported by notes applications remarks and discussions in each chapter. Moreover a series of appendices is added while some major homework assignments are developed at the end of the book before the bibliographic references. . Language: English
