Abstract

This paper describes a new model to estimate dispersion under high wind conditions. The model incorporates our latest understanding of the structure of the shear-dominated stable boundary layer. Vertical inhomogeneity is treated with two different sigma-z values corresponding to the upper and lower parts of the plume. The model has been evaluated against observations of ground-level concentrations measured at monitors in the vicinity of two power plants in the Midwest. Model testing indicates that the model represents a significant improvement over currently available models such as the EPA-recommended CRSTER model.
