An introduction to fluid dynamics, by G.K. Batchelor.

By:

Material type: Text

TextPublication details: Cambridge, U.P., 1967.Edition: South Asia EditionDescription: xviii, 615 p. 24 plates, diagrs. 24 cmISBN:

9788185618241

Subject(s):

Fluid dynamics

DDC classification:

532.05 BAT

Contents:

1. The physical properties of fluids -- 2. Kinematics of the flow field -- 3. Equations governing the motion of a fluid -- 4. Flow of a uniform incompressible viscous fluid -- 5. Flow at large Reynolds number: effects of viscosity -- 6. Irrotational flow theory and its applications -- 7. Flow of effectively inviscid liquid with vorticity.

Summary: First published in 1967, Professor Batchelor's classic text on fluid dynamics is still one of the foremost texts in the subject. The careful presentation of the underlying theories of fluids is still timely and applicable. This re-issue should ensure that a new generation of graduate students see the elegance of Professor Batchelor's presentation.
