Covering the important task of the scale-up of processes from the
laboratory to the production scale, this easily comprehensible and
transparent 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 or not available or only partly similar. All this
is illustrated by 20 real-world examples, while 25 exercises plus
solutions new to this edition practice and monitor learning. 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. Other additions to this
second edition are dimensional analysis of pelleting processes, and a
historical overview of dimensional analysis and modeling, while all
the chapters have been updated to take the latest literature into
account. Written by a specialist with more than 40 years of experience
in the industry, this book is specifically aimed at students as well
as practicing engineers, chemists and process engineers already
working in the field.
