Description
Frank White's Viscous Fluid Flow, Third Edition continues to be the market leader in this course area. The text is for a senior graduate level elective in Mechanical Engineering, and has a strong professional and international appeal.
Author Frank White is has a strong reputation in the field, his book is accurate, conceptually strong, and contains excellent problem sets. Many of the problems are new to this third edition; a rarity among senior and graduate level textbooks. The references found in the text have been updated and reflect the most current information available. Users will also be interested to find explanations of, and references to ongoing controversies and trends in this course area.

Features
- Frank White has always been recognized for his enagaging, and easy-to-read writing style.
- Topically speaking, the text contains modern information on technological advances, such as Micro- and Nano-technology, Turbulence Modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Unsteady Boundary Layers.
- New material has been added to chapters 1, 3, and 4 on microflows, slip in liquids, gas slip flow in tubes and channels, and a novel micro-pump.
- Chapter five, The Stability of Laminar Flows, now begins with the classic Kelvin-Helmholtz wind-wave instability. A great wind-shear cloud-wave photo has been added too.
- The discussion of turbulence modeling in chapter six has been completely rewritten, expanded and updated.
- Users will be happy to find explanations of, and references to, ongoing controversies and trends in this course area.
- The role of Computerized Fluid Mechanics ("CFD") in viscous fluid flow/boundary layer analysis is mentioned, and 2 new applications of CFD are given for liquid spheres and a novel micro-pump.
- Each reference in the text reflects the most recent information available.

Frank M. White is Professor Emeritus of Mechanical and Ocean Engineering at the University of Rhode Island. He is a native of Augusta, Georgia, and went to undergraduate school at Georgia Tech, receiving a B.M.E. degree in 1954. Then he attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for an S.M. degree in 1956, returning to Georgia Tech to earn a Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering in 1959. He began teaching aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech in 1957 and moved to the University of Rhode Island in 1964. He retired in January 1998.
At the University of Rhode Island, Frank became interested in oceanographic and coastal flow problems and in 1996 helped found the first Department of Ocean Engineering in the United States. His research interests have mainly been in viscous flow and convection heat transfer. Known primarily as a teacher and writer, he received the ASEE Westinghouse Teaching Excellence Award in addition to seven University of Rhode Island teaching awards. His modest research accomplishments include some 80 technical papers and reports, the ASME Lewis F. Moody Research Award in 1973, and the ASME Fluids Engineering Award in 1991. He is a Fellow of the ASME and for 12 years served as editor-in-chief of the ASME Journal of Fluids Engineering. He received a Distinguished Alumnus award from Georgia Tech in 1990 and was elected to the Academy of Distinguished Georgia Tech Alumni in 1994.
In addition to the present text, he has written three undergraduate textbooks: Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, and Heat and Mass Transfer. He continues to serve on the ASME Publications Committee and has been a consulting editor of the McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology since 1992. He lives with his wife, Jeanne, in Narragansett, Rhode Island.
