PREFACE
This workbook presents some computational techniques currently used by scienworking with atmospheric dispersion problems. Because the basic working equations are general, their application to specific problems usually requires special care and judgment; such considerations are illustrated by 26 example problems. This workbook is intended as an aid to meteorologists and air pollution scientists who are required to estimate atmospheric concentrations of contaminants from various types of sources. It is not intended as a complete do-it-yourself manual for atmospheric dispersion estimates; all of the numerous complications that arise in making best estimates of dispersion cannot be so easily resolved. Awareness of the possible complexities can enable the user to appreciate the validity of his "first approximations" and

ABSTRACT
This workbook presents methods of practical application of the binormal continuous plume dispersion model to estimate concentrations of air pollutants. Estimates of dispersion are those of Pasquill as restated by Gifford. Emphasis is on the estimation of concentrations from continuous sources for sampling times up:, to 1 hour.. Some of the topics discussed are determination of effective height of emission, extension of concentration estimates to longer sampling intervals, inversion break-up fumigation concentrations, and concentrations from area, line, and multiple sources.

During recent years methods of estimating atmospheric dispersion have undergone considerable revision, primarily due to results of experimental measurements. In most dispersion problems the relevant atmospheric layer is that nearest the ground, varying in thickness from several hundred to a few thousand meters. Variations in both thermal and mechanical turbulence and in wind velocity are greatest in the layer in contact with the surface. Turbulence induced by buoyancy forces in the atmosphere is closely related to the vertical

The transfer of momentum upward or downward in the atmosphere is also related to stability; when the atmosphere is unstable, usually in the daytime, upward motions transfer the momentum "deficiency" due to eddy friction losses near the earth's surface through a relatively deep layer, causing the wind speed to increase more slowly
with height than at night (except in the lowest few meters). In addition to thermal turbulence, roughness elements on the ground engender mechanical turbulence, which affects both the dispersion of material in the atmosphere and the wind profile (variation of wind with height). Examples of these effects on the resulting wind profile are shown in
Figure 1-2.
As wind speed increases, the effluent from a continuous source is introduced into a greater volume of air per unit time interval. In addition to this dilution by wind speed, the spreading of the material (normal to the mean direction of transport) by turbulence is a major factor in the dispersion process.
The procedures presented here to estimate atmospheric dispersion are applicable when mean wind speed and direction can be determined, but measurements of turbulence, such as the standard deviation of wind direction fluctuations, are not available. If such measurements are at hand, techniques such as those outlined by Pasquill (1961) are likely to give more accurate results. The diffusion param-
eters presented here are most applicable to groundlevel or low-level releases (from the surface to about

Hay and Pasquill (1957) have presented experimental evidence that the vertical distribution of spreading particles from an elevated point is related to the standard deviation of the wind elevation angle, at the point of release.

These statistics were related to the standard deviations of azimuth calculated from angle, <r A and elevation angle, wind measurements made with a bi-directional wind vane (bivane). Values for diffusion parameters based on field diffusion tests were suggested by Cramer, et al. (1958) (and also in Cramer 1959a

and 1959b). Hay and Pasquill (1959) also presented a method for deriving the spread of pollutants from records of wind fluctuation. Pasquill (1961) has further proposed a method for estimating diffusion when such detailed wind data are not available. This method expresses the height and angular spread of a diffusing plume in terms of more commonly observed weather parameters. Suggested curves of height and angular spread as a function of distance downwind were given for several "stability" classes. Gifford (1961) converted Pasquill's values of angular spread and height into standard deviations of plume concentration distribution, ffy and (T K Pasquill's method, with Giflord's conversion incorporated, is used in this workbook (see Chapter 3) for diffusion estimates.

Advantages of this system are that (1) only two dispersion parameters are required and (2) results most diffusion experiments are now being reported in terms of the standard deviations of plume spread.

The values of <ry and CTZ vary with the turbulent structure of the atmosphere, height above the sursurface roughness, sampling time over which face, the concentration is to be estimated, wind speed and distance from the source.

for this situation by considering the height of the base of the stable layer, L. At a height 2.15 above the plume centerline the concentration is onetenth the plume centerline concentration at the same distance. When one-tenth the plume centerline concentration extends to the stable layer, at height L, it is reasonable to assume that the distribution starts being affected by the "lid." The following method is suggested to take care of this situation. Allow (r z to increase with distance to a value of L/2.15 or 0.47 L. At this distance x r the plume is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution in the vertical. Assume that by the time the plume travels twice this far, 2 XL, the plume has become uniformly distributed between the earth's surface and the height L, i.e., concentration does not vary with

To gain maximum insight into a diffusion probit is often desirable to plot centerline concenconvenient trations against distance downwind. procedure is to determine the ground-level centerline concentrations for a number of downwind dis-
tances and plot these values on log-log graph paper. By connecting the points, one may estimate concentrations for intermediate downwind distances

In most problems one must estimate the effective stack height, H, at which the plume becomes essentially level. Rarely will this height correspond to the physical height of the stack, h. If the plume is caught in the turbulent wake of the stack or of buildings in the vicinity of the stack, the effluent will be mixed rapidly downward toward the ground (aerodynamic downwash). If the plume is emitted free of these turbulent zones, a number of emission
factors and meteorological factors influence the rise of the plume. The emission factors are: velocity of the effluent at the top of the stack, V H temperature of the effluent at the top of the stack, T H and diameter of the stack opening, d. The meteorolog;

Holland (1953) suggests that a value between 1.1 and 1.2 times the AH from the equation should be used for unstable conditions; a value between 0.8 and 0.9 times the AH from the equation should
be used for stable conditions.
Since the plume rise from a stack occurs over some distance downwind, Eq. (4.1) should not be applied within the first few hundred meters of the
stack.
ical factors influencing plume rise are wind speed, u; temperature of the air, T,,; shear of the wind with height, du/dz; and atmospheric sta-

The maximum ground-level concentration occurs at some intermediate wind speed, at which a balance is reached between the dilution due to wind speed and the effect of height of emission. This critical wind speed will vary with stability. In order to determine the critical wind speed, the effective stack height as a function of wind speed should first be determined. The maximum concentration for each wind speed and stability can then be calculated from Figure 3-9 as a function of effective height of emission and stability. When the maximum concentration as a function of wind speed is plotted on log-log for each stability graph paper, curves can be drawn to the class; the critical wind speed corresponds concentration on the point of highest maximum curve (see problem 14).

the wind speed will usually prevent downwash in the wake of the stack. Most of the knowledge about the turbulent wakes around stacks and buildings has been gained through wind tunnel studies (Sherlock and Lesher, 1954; Strom, 1955-1956; Strom, et al, 1957; and Halitsky, 1962). By use of models of building shapes and stacks, one may determine the wind speeds required to cause downwash for various wind directions. With a wind tunnel the
meteorological variables most easily accounted for are wind speed and wind direction (by rotation of the model within the tunnel) The emission factors that may be considered are the size and shape of the plant building; the shape, height, and diameter of the stack; the amount of emission; and the stack.

,
Through wind tunnel studies, the critical wind speeds that will cause downwash from various directions can be determined for a given set of plant factors. The average number of hours of downwash per year can then be calculated' by determining the frequency of wind speeds greater than the critical speeds for each direction (Sherlock and Lesher, 1954) if climatological data representative of the site are available.
Maximum downwash about a rectangular structure occurs when the direction of the wind is at an angle of 45 degrees from the major axis of the structure; minimum downwash occurs with wind flow parallel to the major axis of the structure (Sherlock
and Lesher, 1954).

Upon release of the gases from the stack, the water droplets evaporate, withdrawing the latent heat of vaporization from the air and cooling" the plume. The resulting negative buoyancy reduces the effective stack height (Scorer, 1959).

In addition to the effect of aerodynamic downwash upon the release of air pollutants from stacks and buildings, one must also consider the effects of aerodynamic downwash when exposing meteorological instruments near or upon buildings.

Equations for estimating concentrations with these conditions have been given by Holland (1953), Hewson (1955), Gilford (1960a), Bierly and Hewson (1962), and Pooler (1965).
Or, using an approximation suggested by Bierly and Hewson (1962) that the edge of the plume spreads outward with an angle of 15, the cfyit for the inversion break-up fumigation equals the a y for stable conditions plus one-eighth the effective height of emission.

For a source that emits at a constant rate from lour to hour and day to day, estimates of seasonal annual average concentrations can be made for any distance in any direction if stability wind "rose" data are available for the period under study. A wind rose gives the frequency of occurrence for each wind direction (usually to 16 points) and wind speed class (9 classes in standard Weather Bureau use) for the period under consideration (from 1 month to 10 years) stability wind rose gives the

For elevated sources maximum concentrations for time periods of about half an hour can occur with fumigation conditions when an unstable layer increases vertically to mix downward a plume previously discharged within a stable layer. With small AH, the fumigation can occur close to the source but will be of relatively short duration. For large AH, the fumigation will occur some distance from the stack (perhaps 30 to 40 km), but can persist for a longer time interval. Concentrations considerably lower than those associated with fumigations, but of significance can occur with neutral or unstable
when the dispersion upward is severely limited by the existence of a more stable layer above the plume, for example, an inversion.

For example, to calculate concentrations on a hillside downwind from and facing the source and at about the effective source height, the equation for concentrations at ground-level from a groundlevel source (Eq* 3,4) will yield the highest expected concentrations. This would closely approximate the situation under stable conditions, when the pollutant plume would be most likely to encounter the hillside. Under unstable conditions the flow is more likely to rise over the hill (see problem

When estimating concentrations from finite line sources, one must account for "edge effects" caused by the end of the line source. These effects will of course extend to greater cross-wind distances as the distance from the source increases.

Thus far we have considered only sources that were emitting continuously or for time periods equal source to or greater than the travel times from the reto the point of interest. Cases of instantaneous releases lease, as from an explosion, or short-term on the order of seconds, are often of practical concern. To determine concentrations at any position the time interval downwind, one must consider downafter the time of release and diffusion in the wind direction as well as lateral and vertical diffusion.
