Summary

Thoroughly revised and expanded, the new edition of this established textbook equips readers with a robust and practical understanding of experimental fluid mechanics. Enhanced features include improved support for students with emphasis on pedagogical instruction and self-learning, end-of-chapter summaries, 127 examples, 165 problems, refined illustrations, as well as new coverage of techniques in digital photography, frequency analysis of signals and the measurement of forces. It describes comprehensively classical and modern methods for flow visualisation and measuring flow rate, pressure, velocity, temperature, concentration, forces and wall shear stress, alongside supporting material on system response, measurement uncertainty, signal analysis, data analysis, optics, laboratory apparatus and laboratory practice. With enhanced instructor resources, including lecture slides, additional problems, laboratory support materials and online solutions, this is the ideal textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students studying experimental fluid mechanics and is also suitable for an introductory measurements laboratory. Moreover, it is a valuable resource for practising engineers and scientists in this area.
