Fluid Mechanics and Machinery features exhaustive coverage of the essential concepts of the mechanics of fluids, both static and dynamic. It also provides an overview of the design and operation of various hydraulic machines such as pumps and turbines. The book also features numerous solved examples in order to help students grasp the fundamentals and apply them to real-life situations.

Beginning with discussion of the properties of fluids, Fluid Mechanics and Machinery gives detailed information on topics such as fluid pressure and its measurement, principles of buoyancy and flotation, and fluid statics, kinematics, and dynamics. It then moves on to discuss dimensional analysis and flow of fluids through orifices, mouthpieces, and pipes, and over notches and weirs. More advanced topics such as vortex flow, impact of jets, and flow of compressible fluids are then dealt with in separate chapters. Finally, a thorough overview of the design and operation of various fluid machines such as pumps and turbines explains the practical applications of fluid forces to students.
