Abstract

The advection diffusion equation (ADE) is solved in two directions to obtain the crosswind integrated concentration. The solution is solved using Laplace transformation technique and considering the wind speed depends on the vertical height and eddy diffusivity depends on downwind and vertical distances. We compared between the two predicted concentrations and observed concentration data are taken on the Copenhagen in Denmark.


Keywords

Advection Diffusion Equation, Laplace Transform, Predicted Normalized Crosswind Integrated Concentrations
