SMEDIS: Scientific model evaluation of dense gas dispersion models
TL;DR: SMEDIS as mentioned in this paper is a project currently in progress to develop a protocol for the scientific evaluation of dense gas dispersion models, with particular emphasis on the complex effects of obstacles, terrain and aerosols often found in real situations, and then to apply this protocol to DGD models currently in use in Europe.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modelling environmental & economic impacts of aviation: Introducing the aviation integrated modelling project
Tom G. Reynolds,Steven R. H. Barrett,Lynnette Dray,Antony Evans,Marcus O. Köhler,Maria Vera Morales,Andreas Schäfer,Zia Wadud,Rex Britter,Henry Hallam,Richard Hunsley +10 more
TL;DR: The Aviation Integrated Modelling project as discussed by the authors developed a policy assessment capability to enable comprehensive analyses of aviation, environment and economic interactions at local and global levels, including models for aircraft/engine technologies, air transport demand, airport activity and airspace operations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluid modeling of dense gas dispersion over a ramp
Rex Britter,William H. Snyder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the basic nature of the transport and dispersion of a dense gas plume in the simulated neutral atmospheric boundary layer of a wind tunnel was investigated, both in flat terrain and over a ramp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of aircraft plume dynamics on airport local air quality
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a simplified concentration correction factor approach to efficiently account for dispersion processes particular to aircraft plumes, which is used to explain monitoring station results in the London Heathrow area showing that pollutant concentrations are approximately constant over wind speeds of 3-12m−1.
