hey you can refer to the fluid mechanics books published by

1)arihant publications

2)H.C. verma

3)erodov

even the CBSE physics textbooks for 11th and 12th are good enough for many competitive exams

Since,you are an engineer I will advice you to go for (Concepts of physics) by
H.C.Verma for clearing your basic concept of fluid mechanics,which is also used by IIT-JEE preparing and B.sc.(physics hons.) students.


For further you can use books of Tata mcgraw & hill's.

Best of luck
