SUMMARY

The forum discussion centers on recommendations for introductory Fluid Mechanics textbooks, specifically for civil engineering students. Users suggest "Fluid Mechanics" by Young and Munson as a good starting point but seek additional resources for more example problems. Recommended supplementary texts include "An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics" by Batchelor, "Fluid Mechanics" by White, "Fluid Principles" by Alan Vardy, and "Elementary Fluid Dynamics" by Acheson. Additionally, "Volume 6 of Landau-Lifgarbagez" is highlighted as a comprehensive resource.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic fluid mechanics concepts
  • Familiarity with civil engineering principles
  • Knowledge of mathematical techniques relevant to fluid dynamics
  • Access to recommended textbooks for deeper insights
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "An Introduction to Fluid Mechanics" by Batchelor for additional example problems
  • Explore "Fluid Mechanics" by White for advanced topics
  • Study "Fluid Principles" by Alan Vardy for conceptual clarity

We are using Fluid Mechanics by Young and Munson.
It is a good book but I want to get another one for more example problems.
What is a good textbook for introductory Fluid Mechanics?
I am a civil engineering student.
Thanks

Thanks guys. I will check those book out.
 
Fluid Principles by Alan Vardy will help with understanding.

Elementary Fluid Dynamics by Acheson will help with the maths.

go well
 
One of the best fluids books is Volume 6 of Landau-Lifgarbagez.Covers everything you'll ever need plus more.
