Written in the learner's point of view, this book focuses on understanding the principle of flow. Beneficial to both the beginners in this field as well as experts in other fields. Ideal for college students, graduate students, engineers, and technicians who may all find the book informative and attractive.
This book is written for the learner's point of view, with the purpose of helping readers understand the principles of flow. The theory is explained using ordinary and accessible language, where fluid mechanics is presented in analogy to solid mechanics to emphasize that they are all the application of Newtonian mechanics and thermodynamics. All the informative and helpful illustrations are drawn by the author, uniting the science and the art with figures that complement the text and provide clear understanding. Another unique feature is that one of the chapters is wholly dedicated to providing 25 selected interesting and controversial flow examples, with the purpose of linking theory with practice. The book will be useful to both beginners in the field and experts in other fields, and is ideal for college students, graduate students, engineers, and technicians.

Hongwei Wang graduated from Beihang University with a Ph.D. degree major in turbo machinery and has been teaching fluid mechanics for twenty years. His key publication is the Chinese edition textbook; 'Fluid Mechanics as I Understand it' published December 2014, followed by the second edition published March 2019. His book ranks No. 1 in fluid mechanics in China's biggest online retailer.
