This book is an excellent and exhaustive treatment of the engineering aspects of fluid flow in pipes, through components, and in open channel situations, not to mention nearly every other situation that a mechanical engineer might encounter. As an engineer with fluids and thermal system design experience, I highly recommend this work to anyone in this field. Especially useful are the exhaustive tables of K - values for nearly every imaginable component, including partially open valves, screens, and almost every imaginable type of pipe. This book is well worth the price.

This book is an excellent resource for Fluid Dynamics Engineering. It is a very down to earth and practical guide to designing fluid systems. This is a "must have" if you are in this line of work.

Book was well worth the money. Compariable in price to any academic text. I bought it new, which is a reprint of the classic Blevins text. It doesn't come with any dust cover. I was looking for pipe & fitting loss calculations, which it goes over extensively. Serves as a good guide for actual engineering, since it contains a good balance of theory, design guidelines, and applied data from experimentation on most fluid mechanics type problems.

I did not receive it. I am extremely disaappointed at this lousy service from Amazon. On a scale from 1-10 with 10 being the best, I rate this service at 0 (that is ZERO).

I waited five months for this only to have you tell me it could not be delivered. What a bunch of BS.
