Fluid Mechanics is intended to familiarise students with the fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics in an informal and easy-to-read style. The book is widely applicable to 1st year degree courses in Mechanical, Chemical and Environmental Engineering.Students require materials that are presented in an accessible, user-friendly format. This textbook assumes only basic knowledge of algebra and calculator skills, and guides students through theory and calculations, highlighting typical errors.The text is focused on student-centred learning, encouraging the student to take an active role in the learning process. This is achieved through the use of task boxes (where the student is encouraged to complete a problem before looking at the worked solution), and self-assessment questions at the end of each chapter.
