The 10th edition of Crowe's Engineering Fluid Mechanics will build upon the strengths and success of the 9th edition, including a focus on pedigogical support and providing considering deeper support for development of conceptual understanding and problem solving. This new edition retains the hallmark features of Crowe's distinguished history: clarity of coverage, strong examples and practice problems, and comprehensiveness of material, but expands coverage to Computational Fluid Dynamics-a topic missed in earlier editions. Special Features • Retains hallmark features of Crowe's distinguished history: clarity of coverage, strong example and practice problems, and the comprehensiveness of the material. • Expands coverage to Computational Fluid Dynamics-a topic that has been missing in earlier editions • Examples and practice problems will use techniques such as hints, partial solutions, feedback on common mistakes, and progressive complexity to build student confidence and reinforce skills.
