McGraw-Hill Higher Education has recently published a new undergraduate engineering textbook by Yunus Çengel, professor emeritus at the University of Nevada, and John Cimbala, professor of mechanical engineering at Penn State University. The book, Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals and Applications, is aimed at college level engineering students. Professor Çengel has written three successful textbooks in the area of thermal sciences, and Professor Cimbala is an award-winning expert in Air Quality and Environmental Engineering.
Çengel and Cimbala collaborated with Fluent to provide a detailed chapter on CFD, and a supporting multimedia DVD has flow visualization movies and CFD animations. The text covers the basic principles and equations of fluid mechanics in the context of numerous and diverse real-world engineering applications, using examples generated by CFD. It aims to help students develop an intuitive understanding of fluid mechanics by emphasizing the physics, and by supplying easy-to-understand figures, numerous photographs, and electronic visual aids to enhance the learning experience. The CFD chapter draws extensively on Fluent's student-friendly educational CFD tool, FlowLab, and 42 new FlowLab exercises are embedded within the chapter.
