Abstract

Observations on the far-field time mean condensed plumes from the twin mechanical-draft cooling towers at the Gaston Steam Plant, Willsonville, Alabama taken during February 1975 and January–February 1976 are compared with a one-dimensional integral model for moist plume behaviour. Empirical modifications are required to account for the near-field effects of downwash, source geometry, wind direction relative to tower alignment and the far-field effects of vertical and wind direction shear on plume behaviour. Details on source and ambient parameters are given.
