This is the third edition of a comprehensive single-source reference book on dispersion modeling of air pollution plumes. Topics covered in the book include: classifying atmospheric stability; determining of buoyant pollution plume rise; Gaussian dispersion calculations and modeling; developing windspeed profiles; trapped pollution plumes; fumigated plumes; flare stack plumes; meteorological parameters; and much more. Every equation is completely derived step-by-step and every constraint or assumption is fully explained.
A set of self-study exercises, with detailed answers, is included with each book.
The book has a soft cover and is 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches long with 201 pages.
