Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended the random walk model to deal with the practical problem of buoyant-plume dispersion in a convective boundary layer (CBL) by including an acceleration term in the model equation based on the buoyantplume behaviour in a neutral boundary layer.

TL;DR: The GASTAR model as discussed by the authors addresses some of the outstanding problems in dense gas dispersion using the box model formulation, such as topography, obstacles, concentration fluctuations and chemical reactions.
Abstract: This paper describes the GASTAR dense gas dispersion model that has been developed by the authors to address some of the outstanding problems in dense gas dispersion using the box model formulation. In particular, the problems of topography, obstacles, concentration fluctuations and chemical reactions have been identified in numerous reviews (see Britter 1989 for example) as areas for further development in dense gas dispersion modelling. These effects can be significant in dispersion calculations and risk assessment but have not previously been incorporated in any practical box model formulations of dense gas dispersion.
