OverviewThis volume examines the general theory of dimensions of physical quantities, the theory of mechanical an dphysical similarity, and thge theory of modelling. Several examples illustrate the use of the theories of similarity and dimensions for establishing fundamental mechanical regularities in aviation, explosions and astophysics, as well an in the hydrodynamics of ships. Other interesting areas covered include: the general theory of automodel motions of continuum media, the theory of propagation of explosion waves in gases, the theory of one-dimensional non-established motion is gases, the fundamentals of the gas-dynamics theory of atom-bomb explosion in the atmosphere and the theory of averaging of gaseous flows in channels. Aspects of modelling include the dimensionless characteristics of compressor operation, the theories of engine thrust, and efficiency of an ideal propeller for subsonic and supersonic speeds.
