Textbook
Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers by James O. Wilkes, Prentice Hall PTR, New Jersey, USA, 1999.
Reference Books
1) Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers by Noel de Nevers, McGraw Hill, NY, 1991.
2) Process Fluid Mechanics by Morton Denn, Printice Hall, New Jersey, 1980.
Objective
This course is designed to cover macroscopic and microscopic momentum balances in laminar and turbulent flows including boundary layer flows. This exercise, hopefully, would enable students to describe and design important engineering flow systems
