Diffusion from a point source in an urban atmosphere

  • 1. Department of Mathematics and Theortical Physics Nuclear Research Center, AEA, Cairo (Egypt)

Description

In the present paper, a model for the diffusion of material from a point source in an urban atmosphere is incorporated. The plume is assumed to have a well-defined edge at which the concentration falls to zero. The vertical wind shear is estimated using logarithmic law, by employing most of the available techniques of stability categories. The concentrations estimated from the model were compared favorably with the field observations of other investigators
