Generalized uniform formulae for atmospheric dispersion of activities released from a ventilation stack or from a leaky reactor building

Relations are given for the calculation of the atmospheric transport and dispersion of industrial gaseous wastes released from the stacks of factories, power plants and nuclear power plants. Modified formulae are derived for stack disposal from a small stack, also applicable in calculating the gaseous waste release from a leaky reactor. Uniform generalized formulae are presented serving the calculation of both high and short stack disposals as well as of reactor building leakages. (L.O.)
