Update on my FREE Fluid Mechanics Lesson Video Series: Half Way!

[Cimbala, John Michael]

Teachers, Students, and Lovers of Fluid Mechanics,

 

Quick update on my FREE Fluid Mechanics Lesson Video Series: I passed the half-way mark, having completed my short (typically 10 to 15 minute) video lessons up through Week 8 of the semester (internal flow). My goal is to finish all videos for the semester by Thanksgiving break.

 

I remind you that these lessons are freely available (on YouTube) to all teachers and students of fluid mechanics as supplements to your lectures and textbooks to help you learn fluid mechanics. Please forward this email to others who may benefit from these videos.

 

An Excel file listing of all the videos in this series can be found at

https://www.me.psu.edu/cimbala/Cengel_Cimbala_book/Supplements/List_Fluid_Mechanics_Lesson_Videos_for_CC_Book.xlsx

where you can also download the annotated notes for each video and watch my shorter (somewhat humorous) short videos on the various topics.

 

Below is a copy of the spreadsheet for those of you with email apps that can display it properly. If it does not display, download the Excel file directly using the above link.

 

Enjoy!

John
