| Preface | The book presents the Basics of Fluid Mechanics as Part-I, in a simplified manner. It explains fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics with the help of basic theory, concepts and important derivations with the help of clear illustrations. The text is further supplemented with good number of solved problems and exercises to help students get hold of the subject easily. This book is intended as text book at the undergraduate level for all engineering students. An attempt has been made to present the principles and concepts in simple, coherent and logical manner so that a student new to the subject will be able to comprehend and understand the subject with the minimum of external guidance. |
