Abstract |
This document provides an approach to estimating concentrations downwind of an instantaneous puff release. Dispersion of the puff is described by the Gaussian puff equation, using the didpersion parameters presented in Meteorology and Atomic Energy. The primary purpose of this work is to provide estimates of the instantaneous peak concentration or average concentration through the use of simple equations and nomograms. Example problems are provided to demonstrate the use of the equations and nomograms. A computerized Gaussian puff model is also presented. |
