Despite their importance for pollutant dispersion in urban areas, the special features of dispersion at street intersections
are rarely taken into account by operational air quality models. Several previous studies have demonstrated the complex flow
patterns that occur at street intersections, even with simple geometry. This study presents results from wind-tunnel experiments
on a reduced scale model of a complex but realistic urban intersection, located in central London. Tracer concentration measurements
were used to derive three-dimensional maps of the concentration field within the intersection. In combination with a previous
study (Carpentieri et al., Boundary-Layer Meteorol 133:277–296, 2009) where the velocity field was measured in the same model,
a methodology for the calculation of the mean tracer flux balance at the intersection was developed and applied. The calculation
highlighted several limitations of current state-of-the-art canyon dispersion models, arising mainly from the complex geometry
of the intersection. Despite its limitations, the proposed methodology could be further developed in order to derive, assess
and implement street intersection dispersion models for complex urban areas. 相似文献

An analytical model of atmospheric dispersion in urban areas in both daytime and nighttime conditions is presented. The model
is based on a Gaussian formulation where the horizontal and vertical diffusion coefficients are determined according to analytical
theories. The model is validated with dispersion measurements from field experiments conducted in Oklahoma City, Salt Lake
City, St. Louis and London, U.K. The theory is in good agreement with the data for both daytime and nighttime conditions.
The data support the conclusion that the magnitude of the nighttime stratification in the urban atmosphere is weak; however,
its effects on dispersion are not negligible. The predicted existence of two distinct dispersion regimes, in the near and
in the far field, is also confirmed by the data. The good collapse of the data suggests that urban dispersion is governed
by the characteristic length scales of atmospheric boundary-layer turbulence, rather than urban canopy length scales that
are more likely to affect dispersion only in the vicinity of the source. 相似文献

A microscale model for air pollutant dispersion simulation in urban areas: Presentation of the model and performance over a single building 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
A microscale air pollutant dispersion model system is developed for emergency response purposes. The model includes a diagnostic wind field model to simulate the wind field and a random-walk air pollutant dispersion model to simulate the pollutant concentration through consideration of the influence of urban buildings. Numerical experiments are designed to evaluate the model's performance, using CEDVAL(Compilation of Experimental Data for Validation of Microscale Dispersion Models) wind tunnel experiment data, including wind fields and air pollutant dispersion around a single building. The results show that the wind model can reproduce the vortexes triggered by urban buildings and the dispersion model simulates the pollutant concentration around buildings well. Typically, the simulation errors come from the determination of the key zones around a building or building cluster. This model has the potential for multiple applications; for example, the prediction of air pollutant dispersion and the evaluation of environmental impacts in emergency situations; urban planning scenarios;and the assessment of microscale air quality in urban areas. 相似文献

A series of sixteen atmospheric tracer experiments using sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), chemical smoke and meteorological balloons was conducted to explore the transport of airborne contaminants in the boundary layer over the ocean surface and in the separating boundary layer over an isolated island cape. The immediate objective of the tests was to determine the impact of local pollutant sources on a background air quality sampling program conducted in the South Pacific from elevated towers on Tutuila Island, American Samoa. In addition to satisfying this objective, the tests are of interest in that they illustrate the local behavior of pollutants in a complex natural atmospheric flow.Offshore tracer tests indicated that the crosswind dispersion of pollutants over the ocean surface can be approximately modeled using the simple Gaussian plume model. The observed crosswind dispersion of the tracer corresponded to that expected under neutrally stable atmospheric conditions, consistent with the near equilibration of the ocean surface and air temperature in the South Pacific. Local, or near-field, tests indicated that tracer released into the wake downwind of the leading edge of the cape mixed rapidly to a height of about 8 m above the surface (i.e., 30–40% of the cape height). Due to decoupling between the boundary layer over the cape and the freestream flow, however, very little of the tracer was observed above this height. This suggests that the impact of local pollutant sources (i.e., on the cape) would be minimized if the proposed sampling towers were elevated significantly above an 8 m altitude (e.g., twice that height). 相似文献

Over the past decades, a large number of studies have been carried out in the field of urban meteorology in China. This paper summarizes the main progress in urban meteorology research from four aspects: urban meteorological observation network and field campaign, multi-scale model of urban meteorology, interaction between urban meteorology and atmospheric environment, and the impacts of urbanization on weather and climate. Major advances are as follows. China’s major cities have established or are improving comprehensive urban meteorological observation networks characterized by multi-platform, multi-variable, multi-scale, multi-link, and multi-function. Beijing, Nanjing, Shanghai, and other cities carried out urban meteorological field campaigns, which were included in the WMO research demonstration project. Wind tunnel experiments and scale-model outdoor experiments were successfully conducted. Multi-scale urban meteorological and air quality prediction numerical model systems have been developed and put into operational use. The urban heat island effect; urban impacts on precipitation, regional climate, and air quality; urban planning; and interaction between urban meteorology and atmospheric environment are extensively investigated. Finally, efforts to improve observational technology, data assimilation, and urban system modeling, to explore the impacts of urbanization on environment and human health, and to provide integrated urban hydro-meteorological climate and environmental services are planned ahead. 相似文献

The inertial subrange of the atmospheric turbulence spectrum extends downward from some 25 m in linear size. Energy is supplied to large eddies and cascades down the size range. The physics implies a certain concentration pattern for material being dispersed. The concentration frequency distribution (for very many ‘equal’ samples) should be log-normal with invariant slope, independent even of sample size. Correlations should be invariant if time lag or distance is measured in units proportional to linear sample size. Even sources with different characteristics might produce similar features. Turbulent dispersion data with air ions as tracer provide a means for testing the theory. Digitized and statistically processed data from 4 instantaneous-source and 8 continuous-source experiments agree well with the theory. Two other experiments, where analog data only are available, also support the conclusions. 相似文献

A new scaling approach, based on the convective velocity obtained from the sun-exposed eastern slopes and thus suited for
steep and narrow Alpine valleys, is investigated with respect to pollutant dispersion. The capability of the new method is
demonstrated with the operational emergency response system of MeteoSwiss, which consists of the COSMO (COnsortium for Small-scale
MOdelling) numerical weather prediction model coupled with a Lagrangian particle dispersion model (LPDM). The new scaling
approach is introduced to the interface between COSMO and LPDM, and is compared to results of a classical similarity theory
approach and to the operational coupling type, which uses the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) from the COSMO model directly.
For the validation of the modelling system, the TRANSALP-89 tracer experiment is used, which was conducted in highly complex
terrain in southern Switzerland. The ability of the COSMO model to simulate the valley wind system is assessed with several
meteorological surface stations, and the dispersion simulation is evaluated with the measurements from 25 surface samplers.
The sensitivity of the modelling system towards the soil moisture, horizontal grid resolution, and boundary-layer height determination
is investigated, and it is shown that, if the flow field is correctly reproduced, the new scaling approach improves the tracer
concentration simulation when compared to classical coupling methods. 相似文献

We investigate the dispersion of a passive scalar within an idealised urban district made up of a building-like obstacle array.
We focus on a street network in which the lateral dimension of the buildings exceeds the street width, a geometry representative
of many European cities. To investigate the effect of different geometries and wind directions upon the pollutant dispersion
process, we have performed a series of wind-tunnel experiments. Concentration measurements of a passive tracer have enabled
us to infer the main features characterising its dispersion within the street network. We describe this by focusing on the
roles of different transfer processes. These are the channelling of the tracer along the street axes, the mixing at street
intersections, and the mass exchange between the streets and the overlying atmospheric flow. Our experiments provide evidence
of the dependence of these processes on the geometrical properties of the array and the direction of the overlying atmospheric
flow. 相似文献

We investigate the influence of the regional-scale weather types on the atmospheric dispersion processes of the air pollutants originated from point sources. Hypothetical accidents were simulated with two different dispersion models. During a year’s test period, the 6-h emission of a radionuclide from the Paks Nuclear Power Plant (Paks NPP, Hungary) was assumed every day and the transport and deposition of the radionuclide was simulated by the Eulerian TREX dispersion model over the Central European region. In addition, the ALOHA Gaussian air dispersion model was also used for the local environment of the Paks NPP to simulate hypothetical hourly releases of ammonia during a 10-year period. During both types of model simulations, the dispersion of the plume for each time was analysed and tested with consideration of 13 circulation types corresponding to daily weather patterns over the Carpathian Basin. There are significant correlations between circulation types and plume directions and structures both in local and regional scales. The daily circulation pattern can be easily obtained from weather analyses; the expected size and direction of polluted area after an accidental release can be quickly estimated even before an accident occurs. However, this fast method cannot replace or neglect dispersion model simulations. It gives a ‘first guess’ and a fast estimation on the direction of the plume and can provide sufficient information for decision-making strategies. 相似文献

Summary Dispersion and transport over complex terrain have been recognized as an important research field. In July 1988, for studying atmospheric dispersion in a mountain area, a tracer experiment has been performed in south alpine valleys near a mountain (Campo dei Fiori, 1226 m.a.s.l.). In this area air masses circulation in wind breeze conditions is frequent. This paper analyses the meteorological situation and the tracer dispersion during those experiments. First a reconstruction of the three-dimensional wind fields overCampo dei Fiori area, taking into account the effects of orography, surface thermal gradients, atmospheric stability and energy of air masses, has been performed. Then the tracer concentrations have been evaluated by means of suitable models and the results have been discussed.With 11 Figures 相似文献

An Assessment of Turbulence Profiles in Rural and Urban Environments Using Local Measurements and Numerical Weather Prediction Results 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
Profiles of velocity variances based on observations in flat rural areas are well established, and are used for modelling turbulent dispersion in all types of regions including those of complex terrain and urban areas. Surface-based and balloon observations are used to assess the profiles in both rural and urban areas. It is shown that, with good meteorological inputs for the locality of friction velocity and surface sensible heat flux, the profiles are equally well suited to urban areas. The sensitivity of the profiles to the input meteorological data, in particular using numerical weather prediction (NWP) data, is discussed. This highlights the limitations of NWP data for dispersion modelling and stresses the importance of schemes for modelling urban meteorology.The British Crowns right to retain a non-exclusive royalty-free license in and to any copyright is acknowledged. 相似文献

A small town close to a lead/zinc smelter was experiencing unusually high concentrations of sulfur dioxide during certain drainage flow conditions. The episodes occurred in situations where the buoyant plume rise should have been sufficient to eliminate any excessive ground level concentrations resulting from building wake effects. A field study was initiated using visible oil fog, tracer gas releases, and constant volume balloons. The resulting data revealed that a standing wave was being induced in the flow across the smelter bringing pollutants from as high as 150m agl down to 30m agl over the nearby town. The existence of the wave is attributed to the combined effects of the smelter buildings and the thermal forcing supplied by smelter operations. Data are presented characterizing the wavelike disturbance and documenting the meteorological conditions under which it occurs. A comparison is made between the simulated pollutant impacts using the tracer gas data and model predictions using the Industrial Source Complex dispersion model. 相似文献

Air circulation due to the urban heat island (UHI) effect can influence the dispersion of air pollutants in a metropolis. This study focusses on the influence of the UHI effect on particulate matter (PM; including PM2.5 and PM2.5–10) between May and September 2010–2012 in the Taipei basin. Meteorological and PM data were obtained from the sites, owned by the governmental authorities. The analysis was carried out using t test, relative indices (RIs), Pearson product–moment correlation and stepwise regression. The results show that the RI values for PM were the highest at moderate UHI intensity (MUI; 2 °C ≤ UHI < 4 °C) rather than at strong UHI intensity (SUI; 4 °C ≤ UHI) during the peak time for anthropogenic emissions (20:00 LST). Neither the accumulation of PM nor the surface convergence occurred in the hot centre, as shown by the case study. At MUI, more than 89 % of the synoptic weather patterns showed that the weather was clear and hot or that the atmosphere was stable. The variation in PM was associated with horizontal and vertical air dispersion. Poor horizontal air dispersion, with subsidence, caused an increase in PM at MUI. However, the updraft motion diluted the PM at SUI. The stepwise regression models show that the cloud index and surface air pressure determined the variation in PM2.5–10, while cloud index, wind speed and mixing height influenced the variation in PM2.5. In conclusion, a direct relationship between UHI effect and PM was not obvious. 相似文献
