About This Book
Advanced Fluid Mechanics is a practical textbook designed for Higher National Diploma (HND) students studying Mechanical Engineering Technology, specifically the MEC 323 Advanced Fluid Mechanics course.
Written to follow the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) course specification, the book covers both theoretical principles and practical applications of advanced fluid mechanics. It takes students beyond elementary fluid mechanics into real engineering problems involving flow measurement, internal and external flow, compressible flow, computational fluid dynamics, pumps, fans, compressors, and positive displacement machines.
The book is structured into seven major chapters:
• Fluid Flow Measuring Devices
• Internal Fluid Flow
• External Fluid Flow
• Compressible Flow
• Computational Fluid Dynamics
• Rotor-Dynamic Machines
• Positive Displacement Machines
It includes worked engineering examples, laboratory exercises, tutorial problems, fluid property tables, pipe roughness data, isentropic flow functions, and answers to tutorial problems. The practical component covers equipment and experiments such as the hydraulic bench, Venturi and orifice meters, Reynolds apparatus, open-channel flow equipment, CFD workstations, centrifugal pumps, and positive displacement machines.
Whether you are an HND student, lecturer, engineering technologist, or professional looking to strengthen your understanding of fluid systems, this book provides a structured pathway from fundamental equations to practical engineering applications.

How do I get my book after paying?
A download link appears on this page as soon as your payment is confirmed, and a permanent copy of the link is emailed to you.
How do I pay?
By card from anywhere. In Nigeria you can also pay by bank transfer, USSD or mobile money. Your card details are entered on Paystack's secure page, never on AfriKDP.
Can I read it on my phone?
Yes. The file opens on phones, tablets, computers and eReaders.
Can I read it without buying it?
Yes, with an AfriKDP reading plan, which opens every book in the online reader and pays the author for every page you read.
