The current book, "Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer," is a comprehensive and authoritative exploration of the field of thermofluid sciences, encompassing fluid mechanics, aero-thermodynamics, heat transfer, and their applications to engineering systems. These two fundamental aspects of physical discipline are intricately linked, forming the foundation of this comprehensive text. It is important to note that no fluid mechanics problem can be solved solely by employing the system of Navier-Stokes and continuity equations, nor can any heat transfer problem be resolved solely by utilizing the energy equation. Recognizing the absence of a single book that treats this physical discipline as a unified subject, driven by the need of the engineering and physics communities, the author has taken the initiative to write this comprehensive work. Primarily aimed at students of engineering, physics, and practicing professionals involved in aero-thermo-heat transfer design tasks, this book offers a deep dive into the subject matter. The contents of this new publication cover the essential material required in Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer Graduate Core Courses in top universities in the United States. Furthermore, it encompasses the major parts of the Ph.D-level elective courses Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer that the author has been teaching at Texas A&M University for over three decades. By presenting a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field, this book serves as a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners seeking to expand their knowledge and expertise in thermofluid sciences.
