Abstract :
The application of dimensional analysis to various types of problems in electrical engineering is discussed in this paper for the purpose of stimulating the use of model experiments in solving these problems. The authors hold that this method can be applied to many electrical engineering problems that are difficult of solution otherwise. Criterions for determining whether or not dimensional analysis and model experiments can be used are given.
