Sinopsis
In this introductory chapter, we present the basic concepts commonly used in the analysis of fluid flow. We start this chapter with a discussion of the phases of matter and the numerous ways of classification of fluid flow, such as viscous versus inviscid regions of flow, internal versus external flow, compressible versus incompressible flow, laminar versus turbulent flow, natural versus forced flow, and steady versus unsteady flow. We also discuss the no-slip condition at solid–fluid interfaces and present a brief history of the development of fluid mechanics.
After presenting the concepts of system and control volume, we review the unit systems that will be used. We then discuss how mathematical models for engineering problems are prepared and how to interpret the results obtained from the analysis of such models. This is followed by a presentation of an intuitive systematic problem-solving technique that can be used as a model in solving engineering problems. Finally, we discuss accuracy, precision, and significant digits in engineering measurements and calculations.
