Investigation on diffusion process is required in variety of field such as chemical reaction, combustion, and environmental studies. However, there is no appropriate index for analyzing degree of homogeneity and scales of the clouds in diffusion field. This paper pressents Entropic Method for determining the homogeneity degree and the scale of the heterogeneous clouds based on the statistic-entropy concept. The results of the investigation on the performance and characteristics of the method showed good correspondence between the analyzed results and the states of the tested pictures. A method for determining a mean effective diffusion-coefficient from the pictures is also discussed. The paper proposes an analitical method available for the study on diffusion phenomena.
