Introduction to the Theory of Flow Machines details the fundamental processes and the relations that have a significant influence in the operating mechanism of flow machines. The book first covers the general consideration in flow machines, such as pressure, stress, and cavitation. In the second chapter, the text deals with ducts; this chapter discusses the general remarks, types of flow, and mixing process. Next, the book tackles the types of cascades, along with its concerns. The closing chapter covers the flow machine and its components, such as turbine, wheels, engines, and propellers. The text will be of great use to mechanical engineers and technicians.

This textbook attempts to cover all the topics concerning fluid Mechanics, Hydraulics and Hydraulic Machines, keeping in view the requirements of undergraduate engineering students of all branches. Beginning with fundamentals, advanced topics are discussed towards the end of each chapter. This book written in SI System of units should be a single guiding reference material for most university examinations, AMIE and other competitive examinations. While dealing with various aspects, emphasis is on showing a physical picture of the situation with the help of diagrams.
The objective of this introductory text is to familiarise students with the basic elements of fluid mechanics so that they will be familiar with the jargon of the discipline and the expected results. At the same time, this book serves as a long-term reference text, contrary to the oversimplified approach occasionally used for such introductory courses. The second objective is to provide a comprehensive foundation for more advanced courses in fluid mechanics (within disciplines such as mechanical or aerospace engineering). In order to avoid confusing the students, the governing equations are introduced early, and the assumptions leading to the various models are clearly presented. This provides a logical hierarchy and explains the interconnectivity between the various models. Supporting examples demonstrate the principles and provide engineering analysis tools for many engineering calculations.
Hydraulic Machines (Fluid Machinery) has been designed as a textbook for engineering students specializing in mechanical, civil, electrical, hydraulics, chemical and power engineering. The highlights of the book are simple language supported by analytical and graphical illustrations. A large number of theory questions and numerical problems with solution hints have been annexed at the end of every chapter. A large number of objective questions have been included to help the students opting for competitive examinations. Five case studies based on research have been included which can be advantageously used by practising engineers pursuing research design and consultancy careers. Complete design of hydraulic machines has been demonstrated with the help of suitable examples. The book has been divided into six parts containing 13 chapters.
The favourable and warm reception,which the previous editions and reprints of this popular book has enjoyed all over India and abroad has been a matter of great satisfaction for me.
This book is intended to be used as a textbook for a first course in fluid mechanics. It stresses on principles and takes the students through the various development in theory and applications. A number of exercises are given at the end of each chapter, all of which have been successfully class-tested by the authors. It will be ideally suited for students taking an undergraduate degree in engineering in all universities in India.
Divided in two parts, “A Textbook of Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machines” is one of the most exhaustive texts on the subject for close to 20 years. For the students of Mechanical Engineering, it can easily be used as a reference text for other courses as well. Important topics ranging from Fluid Dynamics, Laminar Flow and Turbulent Flow to Hydraulic Turbines and Centrifugal pumps are well explained in this book. A total of 23 chapters (combined both units) followed by two special chapters of ‘Universities' Questions (Latest) with Solutions’ and ‘GATE and UPSC Examinations' Questions with Answers/Solutions’ after each unit also make it an excellent resource for aspirants of various entrance examinations.
