Introducing brand new photographs and figures, an additional chapter, along with expanded appendices and a comprehensive subject index, this is an exposition on the application of the fundamental principles of mechanics and thermodynamics to understand fluid flow motion, forces and energies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is divided into two major sections: ideal fluid flow and real fluid flow. Ideal fluid flow examines two- and three-dimensional fluid motions unaffected by boundary friction effects, while real fluid flow addresses regions influenced by boundary friction and turbulent shear. Practical examples range from flow motion in kitchen sinks and exhaust fans to air conditioning systems. Engineering applications encompass fluid transport in pipes and canals, energy generation, environmental processes and transportation systems, including cars, ships and aircraft. Additional topics include environmental wind flow, flow motion in pipelines and water distribution in cities. The material illustrates how airflow around a vehicle body induces a drag force that increases with the square of speed, contributing to fuel consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lecture material is designed as an intermediate course for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students in civil, environmental, hydraulic and mechanical engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHubert Chanson\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Queensland, where he has been since 1990, having previously enjoyed an industrial career for six years. His main field of expertise is environmental fluid mechanics and hydraulic engineering, both in terms of theoretical fundamentals, physical and numerical modelling. He leads a group of 5-10 researchers, largely targeting flows around hydraulic structures, two-phase (gas-liquid and solid-liquid) free-surface flows, turbulence in steady and unsteady open channel flows, using computation, lab-scale experiments, field work and analysis. He has published over 1,300 peer reviewed publications including two dozen of books.He serves on the editorial boards of \u003ci\u003eInternational Journal of Multiphase Flow\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFlow Measurement and Instrumentation\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eJournal of Hydraulic Research\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eEnvironmental Fluid Mechanics\u003c\/i\u003e, the latter of which he is currently a senior Editor. Since 1994, he has been involved in the organisation of a dozen international scientific conferences. And he chaired the Organisation of the 34th IAHR Word Congress (2011) and of the 22nd Australasian Fluid Mechanics Conference (2020), both held in Brisbane, Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e09 November 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCRC Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCRC Press\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9781041161394\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e436\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29.75\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63534028325004,"sku":"9781041161394","price":66.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781041161394","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
