Temperature gradient and wind profile effects on heavy gas dispersion in build up area
, Article Journal of Applied Sciences Research ; Volume 6, Issue 12 , 2010 , Pages 6010-6020 ; 1816157X (ISSN) ; Shahraki, F ; Rashtchian, D ; Behzadmehr, A ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
Dispersion of heavy gases is considered to be more hazardous than the passive ones. This is because it takes place more slowly. In this paper, based on the extensive experimental work of Hanna and Chang, the CFD model (Ansys-CFX) was tested compared with Kit Fox experiments. In order to accomplish this validation, the multiphase approach was employed as a new method in this area. In addition, the temperature gradient effects were investigated. The survey of wind speed was done taking factors such as time, height and direction into the consideration. To reduce the number of elements in computational domain, a combination of 2D and 3D geometries were utilized. Results showed that the wind...
