This volume thoroughly covers scale modeling and serves as the definitive source of information on scale modeling as a powerful simplifying and clarifying tool used by scientists and engineers across many disciplines. The bookelucidates techniques used when it would be too expensive, or too difficult, to test a system of interest in the field. Topics addressed in the current edition include scale modeling to study weather systems, diffusion of pollution in air or water, chemical process in 3-D turbulent flow, multiphase combustion, flame propagation, biological systems, behavior of materials at nano- and micro-scales, and many more. This is an ideal book for students, both graduate and undergraduate, as well as engineers and scientists interested in the latest developments in scale modeling.This book also:Enables readers to evaluate essential and salient aspects of profoundly complex systems, mechanisms, and phenomena at scaleOffers engineers and designers a new point of view, liberating creative and innovative ideas and solutionsServes the widest range of readers across the engineering disciplines and in science and medicine
