Following a concise overview of fluid mechanics informed by numerous engineering applications and examples, this reference presents and analyzes major types of fluid machinery and the major classes of turbines, as well as pump technology. 

It offers professionals and students in hydraulic engineering with background concepts as well as practical coverage of modern turbine technologies, fully explaining the advantages of both steam and gas turbines. 

This new book builds on the original classic textbook entitled: An Introduction to Computational Fluid Mechanics by C. Y. Chow which was originally published in 1979. 

In the decades that have passed since this book was published the field of computational fluid dynamics has seen a number of changes in both the sophistication of the algorithms used but also advances in the computer hardware and software available.
