This book is unique as the first effort to expound on the subjectof systematic scaling analysis. Not written for a specificdiscipline, the book targets any reader interested in transportphenomena and reaction processes. The book is logically dividedinto chapters on the use of systematic scaling analysis in fluiddynamics, heat transfer, mass transfer, and reaction processes. Anintegrating chapter is included that considers more complexproblems involving combined transport phenomena. Each chapterincludes several problems that are explained in considerabledetail. These are followed by several worked examples for which thegeneral outline for the scaling is given. Each chapter alsoincludes many practice problems.
This book is based on recognizing the value of systematicscaling analysis as a pedagogical method for teaching transport andreaction processes and as a research tool for developing andsolving models and in designing experiments. Thus, the book canserve as both a textbook and a reference book.
