Abstract

The Gaussian solution of the diffusion equation for line source is used to have the first four moments of the vertical concentration distribution (centroid, variance, skewness, and kurtosis). The magnitude and position of maximum concentration level were evaluated. Also the plume advection wind speed is estimated. Equations for the ground level concentration were compared with wind tunnel measurements.
