[Kiran Chandar]

Here I am suggesting few books for the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee B. Tech. Civil Engineering , Fluid Mechanics subject :

1. Fox, R.W. and McDonald, A.T., “Introduction to Fluid Mechanics”, John Wiley & Sons. 2004

2. Garde, R.J. and Mirajgaoker, A.G., “Engineering Fluid Mechanics”, Nem Chand & Bros. 1988

3. Kumar, K.L., “Engineering Fluid Mechanics”, Eurasia Publishing House. 2000

4. Schlichting, H. and Gersten, K., “Boundary Layer Theory”, Springer. 2004

5. Streeter, V.L. and Benjamin, W.E., “Fluid Mechanics”, McGraw-Hill. 1983

6. Som, S.K. and Biswas, G., “Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Mechanics”, Tata McGraw Hill. 1998

For your idea , here I am providing syllabus :
