some common vector differential quantities in orthogonal curvilinear co-ordinate systems publications referred to in the text subject index is still the key branch of fluid dynamics. i regret that many important topics such as gas dynamics, surface waves, motion due to buoyancy forces, turbulence, heat and mass transfer, and magneto-fluid dynamics, are apparently ignored, but the subject is simply too large for proper treatment in one volume. if the reception given to the present book suggests that a second volume would be welcome, i may try later to make the coverage more nearly complete. as to the order of material in chapters 4 to 7, the description of motion of a viscous fluid and of flow at large reynolds number precedes the discussion of irrotational flow (although the many purely kinematical properties of an irrotational velocity distribution have a natural place in chapter 2) and of motion of an inviscid fluid with vorticity. my reason for adopting this un- conventional arrangement is not that i believe the'classical' theory of irrota- tional flow is less important than is commonly supposed. it is simply that results concerning the flow of inviscid fluid can be applied realistically only if the circumstances in which the approximation of zero viscosity is valid are first made clear. the mathematical theory of irrotational flow is a powerful weapon for the solution of problems, but in itself it gives no information about whether the whole or a part of a given flow field at large reynolds number will be approximately irrotational. for that vital informa- tion some understanding of the effects of viscosity of a real fluid and of boundary-layer theory is essential; and, whereas the understanding was lacking when lamb wrote his classic treatise hydrodynamics, it is available today. i believe that the first book, at least in english, to show how so many common flow systems could be understood in terms of boundary layers and separation and vorticity movement was modern developments in fluid dynamics, edited by sydney goldstein. that pioneering book published in x938 was aimed primarily at research workers, and i have tried to take the further step of making the understanding of the flow of real fluids accessible to students at an early stage of their study of fluid dynamics. desirable though it is for study of the flow of viscous fluids to precede consideration of an inviscid fluid and irrotational flow, i appreciate that a lecturer may have his hand forced by the available lecturing time. in the ease of mathematics students who are to attend only one course on fluid dynamics, of length under about 30 lectures, it would be foolish to embark on a study of viscous fluid flow and boundary layers in preparation for a description of inviscid-fiuid flow and its applications, since too little time would be left for this topic; the lecturer would need to compromise with scientific logic, and could perhaps take his audience from chapters 2 and 3 |
