In this paper we present a rigorous and systematic method, based on the Lie group theory, which allows to study the similarity properties, to establish the scaling laws and to obtain self-similar solutions. We will show that it is possible to unify different problems through this method. Moreover, we derive, by local considerations, a complete equivalence between laboratory systems and astrophysical objects. We examine, in details, the case of optically thin radiating fluids and consider the example of radiating shock in magnetic cataclysmic variables.
