Poster 1 Mass flux balance at an urban intersection
TL;DR: In this paper, wind tunnel experiments were performed in order to study flow and pollutant dispersion in a real urban environment, as part of a larger EPSRC funded project (DAPPLE, Dispersion of Air Pollution & Penetration into the Local Environment) involving six British Universities.

Modelling the dispersion of nanoparticles in street canyons
Prashant Kumar,Alan Robins +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modified box model (Kumar et al. 2009b) and an operational street pollution model (OSPM) are used for this purpose and modelled results are compared with the measured nanoparticle concentrations.

Group riding: Cyclists exposure to road vehicle emissions in urban environments
TL;DR: In this article , a series of wind tunnel experiments were conducted in the University of Surrey's Environmental Flow wind tunnel with a 1:50 scale of a typical London street canyon to assess the exposure of cyclists riding in a group to the emissions of polluting vehicles.
