Covering the important task of the scale-up of processes from the laboratory to the production scale, this book is divided into two sections. The first part details the theoretical principles, introducing the subject for readers without a profound prior knowledge of mathematics. It discusses the fundamentals
of dimensional analysis, the treatment of temperature-dependent and rheological material values and scale-up where model systems are not available or only partly similar. The second part presents the individual basic operations and covers the fields of mechanical, thermal and chemical process engineering with respect to dimensional analysis and scale-up. The rules for scale-up are given and discussed for each operation. The hardcover book contains 276 pages and costs 119.00 euros.
