Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers with Microfluidics and CFD by James O Wilkes

Introduces fluid mechanics from the perspective of the chemical engineer who must understand actual physical behavior and solve real-world problems. This second edition contains coverage of both microfluidics and computational fluid dynamics, demonstrating CFD through examples using Flow Lab and COMSOL Multiphysics.
