This book provides the reader with a good foundation to understand fluid mechanics and apply that knowledge in the proliferating world of engineering science. The content has been rearranged and rejuvenated in such a way that each chapter introduces the topic and then familiarises the readers with all the associated principles and applications in a systematic manner.
