FUNDAMENTALS AERODYNAMICS

---

This book is for students—to be read, understood, and enjoyed. It is consciously written in a clear, informal, and direct style designed to talk to the reader and to gain his or her immediate interest in the challenging and yet beautiful discipline of aerodynamics. The explanation of each topic is carefully constructed to make sense to the reader. Moreover, the structure of each chapter is highly organized in order to keep the reader aware of where we are, where we were, and where we are going. Too freguently the student of aerodynamics looses sight of what is trying to be accomplished, to avoid this, we attempt to keep the reader informed of our intent at all times. For example, virtually each chapter contains a road map—a block diagram designed to keep the reader well aware of the proper flow of ideas and concepts. The use of such chapter road maps is one of the unigue features of this book. Also, to help organize the reader's thoughts, there are special summary sections at the end of most chapters.

The material in this book is at the level of college juniors and seniors in aerospace or mechanical engineering. It assumes no prior knowledge of fluid dynamics in general, or aerodynamics in particular. It does assume a familiarity with differential and integral calculus, as well as the usual physics background common to most students of science and engineering. Also, the language of vector analysis is used liberally, a compact review of the necessary elements of vector algebra and vector calculus is given in Chap. 2 in such a fashion that it can either educate or refresh the reader, whichever may
