Fundamentals of Flight By Richard S. Shevell
Fundamentals of Flight By Richard S. Shevell
A comprehensive introduction to aeronautics for both majors and non-majors, covering the basics of fluid mechanics (for aeronautics), the production of lift and drag, and the effects of viscosity and compressibility, among other topics. Frequently introduces applied aerodynamic methods and explains design integration in many chapters. Provides thorough coverage of the theory of circulation. For a sophomore/junior/senior course in aeronautics. (vs. Anderson)
Aerodynamics for Engineering Students By Houghton & Carrathur
Aerodynamics for Engineering Students By Houghton and Carruthers
As a book it's rich in theory and is suitable for undergraduate students studying in the field of aerospace engineering. The book has some solved examples which are very much application oriented and the majority of the unsolved examples are advanced for an undergrad student. The coverage of the Bernoulli and continuity equation is not enough in the book, that's why the student might need to resort to fluid mechanics books. The same applies for solved and unsolved examples. Chapters 3,4 and 7 are the richest in ideas and details which is a logical approach due to the strong coupling of flight with aerofoils not forgetting good understanding of boundary layers.
