Air Pollution Control - Stacks
Solving for plume contaminant concentration at ground level.
Inputs:
Conversions:
| pollution rate emission rate(Q) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | gram/second |
| average wind speed (u) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | meter/second |
| y direction plume standard deviation (σy) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | meter |
| z direction plume standard deviation (σz) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | meter |
| y position (y) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | meter |
| effective stach height (H) | = | 0 | | = | 0 | meter |
Solution:
| plume contaminant concentration at ground level (C) | = | HAS NOT BEEN CALCULATED | |
