This is the first book which systematically describes an integral approach on dimensional analysis. The amount of textbooks on dimensional analysis is huge, however most of the books start with the definition of the relevant variables. When the variables are given to the reader without prior knowledge on each problem it has serious consequences: the usefulness of dimensional analysis is not appreciated, is not possible to understand the real challenges of this subject and the result, which is a general relationship with dimensionless groups is useless. This book closes the hole in previous books because in addition to describe step by step how to reach the general relationship with dimensionless groups, which creates solid basis of different metallurgical problems to understand the role of the relevant variables. It provides a full description on how to obtain the experimental data and applies the experimental data to transform the general relationship in a particular solution. Once the reader learns how to design the experimental work and uses that information to define the particular solution, it is possible to asses if the selection of variables was adequate or not. The book is useful for both undergraduate and graduate students.

Prof. Alberto N. Conejo is a full professor at the University of Science and Technology Beijing (USTB). School of Metallurgical and Ecological Engineering. Beijing China. He is also a principal researcher on ironmaking and steelmaking at Ferrous Metallurgy Research Institute (FeMRI) México. Prof. Conejo obtained his PhD in Metallurgical Engineering from Colorado School of Mines, Golden CO, USA in 1995. He is an Editorial Member of the International Journal of Minerals, Metallurgy and Materials since 2019 and an Editorial Member of Metallurgical Research and Technology (previously known as Revue de Metallurgie) since 2017. He was awarded National award (2nd place): Technology and Science award granted by the Mexican Steel Producers Association (Canacero). 2010/2011 for his work on EAF modeling.
