Synopsis "Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers: With Microfluidics and CFD"

Fluid Mechanics for Chemical Engineers: With Microfluidics and CFD (ISBN 9780131482128) by James O. Wilkes is a comprehensive and advanced engineering textbook that presents the principles of fluid mechanics from the perspective of chemical engineering applications. Designed for students and professionals in chemical, biochemical, materials, energy, polymer and process engineering, this book combines classical fluid mechanics with modern topics such as microfluidics and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), making it a valuable resource for understanding both macroscopic and microscopic fluid behavior.

The second edition provides deep technical coverage with real‑world examples, systematic explanations of flow phenomena, and extensive problems to develop analytical skills. It includes detailed discussions of flow through pipes and pumps, non‑Newtonian fluids, turbulence and mixing, CFD case studies using tools like FlowLab and COMSOL Multiphysics, plus hundreds of end‑of‑chapter questions that reinforce learning and prepare readers for professional practice and advanced research in fluid mechanics applied to chemical engineering processes.
