The coverage pushes well beyond traditional applications in fluid mechanics and gas dynamics to demonstrate how powerful self-similarity can be in solving complex problems across many diverse fields, using nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) by reducing them to Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) with a simple traditional analytical solution approach. Of particular interest is the book?s coverage of dimensional analysis and self-similarity methods in nuclear and energy engineering from Heat Transfer and Thermal Hydraulic points of view. Numerous practical examples of dimensional analysis problems are presented throughout each chapter, with additional problems presented in each appendix, allowing readers to link the book?s theoretical explanations and step-by-step mathematical solutions to practical implementations. 000726594 650_0 $$aDimensional analysis. 000726594 650_0 $$aSelf-similar processes. 000726594 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319134758 000726594 852__ $$bebk 000726594 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-13476-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000726594 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726594$$pGLOBAL_SET 000726594 980__ $$aEBOOK 000726594 980__ $$aBIB 000726594 982__ $$aEbook 000726594 983__ $$aOnline 000726594 994__ $$a92$$bISE
