Introduction

Air pollution has harmful effect on human health and the environment. Accordingly, considerable effort has been put to analyze the air pollutants. One important issue is the spatial distribution of these pollutants. Dispersion of the pollutants released from sources on the ground is mostly driven by the planetary boundary layer where turbulent flow causes mixing of the content of the stationary ground layer of atmosphere with higher moving layers and thereby clears out the pollutants rapidly. To predict the dispersion of air pollution in the atmosphere, researchers investigate the behavior of plume rise under certain conditions. Two factors critically affect the result of the test: primary plume rise and its dispersion. In this work, we study the effective height of emission which determines the dispersion of the pollutants. The height of the plume has been subjected to semi-empirical and to more accurate numerical studies. These approaches suffer from some shortcomings. For instance, the gravitational effects and fluctuations of the wind speed are neglected. Numerical approaches are typically based on a Gaussian plume rise model so called ISC3 (published by EPA). In this paper plume rise of emission of an air pollutant is simulated using Fluent software which allows one to input natural wind velocity profile and to consider the gravity. Another advantage of this approach lies in the usage of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and temperature profiles. In this work, theoretical plume rise using the ISC3 model were being calculated at first. The calculated values of xf and ∆h are equal to 437.85 m and 50.87m, respectively. Then, the dispersion was being simulated accordingly using Fluent and the results were compared with those of the numerical studies.
