Overview

This collection of exercises is meant as a companion volume to the textbook Fluid Mechanics. It is the translation of the second edition of Aufgaben zur Stromungslehre. The book contains about 200 problems worked out in detail. In selecting the exercises I have been guided by didactical consider­ ations and included problems that demonstrate the application of the gen­ eral principles of continuum mechanics to more or less classical problems in fluid mechanics. Most of these problems are found in other textbooks or collections. On the other hand, there is a good number of exercises designed to develop and further the ability to model and solve practical problems. Besides these worked examples, thirty examination problems with answers only are included. In addition there are also exercises for Cartesian tensor calculus. The book has been translated by Professor M. T. Schobeiri, Texas A & M University. I thank him and also Dorothee Sommer and Peter Pelz for their help with this book.
