Entropic invariants of two-phase flows /

In this book, a new approach to the theory and practice of two-phase systems based on a global invariant - entropy, - and other invariants is formulated and experimentally confirmed. <ul><li>Offers a novel approach to the study of the two-phase flows systems based on statistical mechanic...
