| Abstract |
TUPOS and its postprocessor, TUPOS-P, form a Gaussian model which resembles MPTER but offers several technical improvements. TUPOS estimates dispersion directly from fluctuation statistics at plume level and calculates plume rise and partial penetration of the plume into stable layers using vertical profiles of wind and temperature. The model user is thus required to furnish meteorological information for several heights above-ground in a separate input file. TUPOS can be used for short-term (hours to days) impact assessment of inert pollutants from single or multiple sources and can be expected to have greatest accuracy for locations within 10 km of the source. Although TUPOIS will make computations for receptors having any ground-level elevation, it is not intended as a complex terrain model, but rather as a model for calculations over flat or gently rolling terrain. TUPOS will optionally treat buoyancy-induced dispersion but does not include building downwash, deposition, or fumigation. |
