Boundary Layer Theory
Hermann Schlichting | 1979-04-01 00:00:00 | McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math | 817 | Engineering
This text is the translation and revision of Schlichting's classic text in boundary layer theory. The main areas covered are laws of motion for a viscous fluid, laminar boundary layers, transition and turbulence, and turbulent boundary layers.

Good value - well worth the money. I also like the updated sections available in the Springer edition.

Although I have only the first edition, I still find it to be of immense value, and hands-down superior to any other book on the subject (save the newer edition perhaps). It seamlessly weaves together theory, mathematics, and experimental observation, into a very readable and (surprisingly) interesting text. Because it explains the fundamentals so well, Schlichting's book is one of those rare engineering classics that will continue to be of value for a very long time to come.

This is the classic book on the subject to be ever written and retains its class by incorporating some of the recent developments in the boundary layer theory.
A great collection for anyone in the field of turbulence, aerodynamics ...

this is a classic book. however, the new 8th edition is not translated very well. i have an older english version (6th edition, 1968) that is translated much better. even where the content is the same between the two editions, the "updated" translation is worse that in the original version.

This is the best and the most classical fluid mechanics book that i have read. Read it through carefully and you will get much from it. Reading it from time to time can give you many new knowledge every time.
