Mechanics of Fluids
By Merle C. Potter, David C. Wiggert, Bassem H. Ramadan
About your course materials
Help students gain an understanding of fluid mechanics and strengthen their abilities to analyze this important phenomena encountered by practicing engineers with MECHANICS OF FLUIDS, 5E. The authors use proven learning tools to help students visualize many difficult-to-understand aspects of fluid mechanics. They present numerous phenomena that are often not discussed in other texts, such as entrance flows, the difference between wakes and separated regions, free-stream fluctuations and turbulence, and vorticity. A unique accompanying Multimedia Fluid Mechanics DVD allows students to gain insight and develop intuition about fluid flow as they see the mathematical relationships through movies and conduct actual simulations.

VIDEO TUTORIALS AND MINI-EXAMS OFFER HELPFUL STUDY RESOURCES. Each Video Tutorial focuses around a specific learning objective and presents clear audio and visual explanations of the concepts. Twenty-two Mini-Exams, each containing several actual exam problems, offer your students helpful tools for self-study. Each Mini-Exam covers one or more sections of the textbook.
INTRODUCTORY MATERIAL ADDRESSES THE FUNDAMENTALS OF FLUID MECHANICS. Students cover the basic fundamentals in Chapters 1-9 with carefully selected content designed to introduce all of the key areas of fluid mechanics.
MULTIMEDIA FLUID MECHANICS DVD-ROM CLEARLY ILLUSTRATES CONCEPTS. This engaging DVD that corresponds to this edition uses actual fluid flows to illustrate the specific concepts presented in the text. The DVD includes nearly 1000 fluids videos and more than 20 virtual labs and simulations. Students can conduct interactive simulations to ensure their understanding.
NUMEROUS HOMEWORK PROBLEMS PROVIDE VARIETY OF PRACTICE. Your students gain hands-on experience in solving problems at various levels of difficulty with this edition's abundant selection of homework problems. Many problems have multiple parts to better simulate actual work experiences.
