Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImprovement of the Vertical Dispersion of Pollutants Resulting From Chimneys by Thermosiphon EffectA. O.M. Mahmoud, J. Zinoubi, R. B. Maad, A. BelghithThe dispersion of pollutants, resulting from industrial chimneys, in the surrounding atmosphere made the interest in realizing emitting conditions appears. It also encourages the vertical dispersion of these pollutants. At a given wind velocity, the height of this dispersion is essentially a function of the thermal power and the flow rate at the chimney exit. To improve these qualities, we … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,406 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sensitivity Study of the Validation of Three Regulatory Dispersion ModelsKeith D. Harsham, Michael BennettLidar measurements were made of the dispersion of the plume from a coastal industrial plant over three weeks between September 1996 and May 1998, 67 experimental runs were obtained, mostly of 30 min duration, and these were analysed to provide plume parameters (i.e. height, vertical and lateral spreads). These measurements were supplemented by local meteorological measurements at two portable meteorological … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 6,714 accessesView PDFCite
