Table of contents:

1. Introduction and Fundamental Concepts
2. Fluids Under Rest/Rigid Body Motion
3. Kinematics of Fluid Flow
4. Dynamics of Inviscid Flows: Fundamentals and Applications
5. Integral Forms of Conservation Equations
6. Principles of Physical Similarity and Dimensional Analysis
7. Flow of Ideal Fluids
8. Dynamics of Viscous Flows
9. Laminar Boundary Layers
10. Turbulent Flow
11. Viscous Flows through Pipes
12. Flows with a Free Surface
13. Applications of Unsteady Flows
14. Compressible Flow
15. Principles of Fluid Machines
