The analysis of dimensions delivers the dimensionless numbers by which specific physical challenges can be described with a reduced number of variables. Thereby the assessment of physical problems is facilitated. For fluid dynamics and all sorts of heat transfer the discipline of the mechanics of similarity was so important in the past, that the historical background is highlighted of all the persons who have contributed to the development of this discipline. The goal of the classical gasdynamic similarity was to find rules, which enables the aerodynamic engineer to perform transformations from existing flow fields to others, which meet geometrical and other specific flow field parameters. Most of these rules and findings do no longer play a role today, because a lot of potent experimental and theoretical/numerical methods are now available. This problem is addressed in the book. A recent investigation regarding the longitudinal aerodynamics of space vehicles has revealed, that there exist other astonishing similarities for hypersonic and supersonic flight Mach numbers. It seems, that obviously most of the longitudinal aerodynamics is independent from the geometrical configurations of the space vehicle considered, if a simple transformation is applied. A section of this book is devoted to these new findings. 606 $aContinuum physics 606 $aThermodynamics 606 $aHeat engineering 606 $aHeat transfer 606 $aMass transfer 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aClassical and Continuum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P2100X 606 $aEngineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T14000 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 615 0$aContinuum physics. 615 0$aThermodynamics. 615 0$aHeat engineering. 615 0$aHeat transfer. 615 0$aMass transfer. 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 14$aClassical and Continuum Physics. 615 24$aEngineering Thermodynamics, Heat and Mass Transfer. 615 24$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 676 $a629.1323 700 $aWeiland$b Claus$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0999568 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910407731103321 996 $aMechanics of Flow Similarities$92537142 997 $aUNINA
