Summary

White's Fluid Mechanics, sixth edition will continue the text's tradition of excellent problems of different types, precision and accuracy, and good application of concepts to engineering.This is the number one supplement package in Fluids!The new 6th edition will feature the best general problem-solving approach to date, presented at the start of the book and carefully integrated in all examples. Students can progress from general ones to those involving design, multiple steps and computer usage. Word problems are included to build readers' conceptual understanding of the subject, and FE Exam problems (in multiple-choice format) are included. EES (Engineering Equation Solver) software is included so that students can effectively use the computer to model, solve and modify typical fluid mechanics problems.A DVD containing EES is free with every book,and Appendix E describes its use and application to fluid mechanics. A limited version of EES, that does not expire, is included on the CD ROM. Users of the book can also download and distribute the full Academic Version of EES, which is renewed annually with a new username and password. Also ananimation library will be included as well as 150 algorithmic problems, in ARIS, McGraw's-Hill's electronic homework management system.
