A Dispersion Model for Coastal Zones and Complex Terrain
http://www.hku.hk/rss/res_proj/16/16.htm
A description of the research program in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of Hong Kong that led to the development of a comprehensive air dispersion model for use in coastal zones and complex terrain such as exists in the Hong Kong area.

The APPH Module (Air Pollution and Public Health) integrates three different models in the Aidair Geneva system. The system was developed in Switzerland to draw maps of air pollution emissions from point sources (power plants, industries) and/or area sources (automotive traffic). The three dispersion models used are: a Gaussian model; a Lagrangian model; and a statistic model.

BREEZE markets the software developed by Trinity Consultants of Dallas, Texas, USA. They offer air quality modeling software, meteorological data, training and support. Among the software packages offered are those based on the US EPA's ISC and AERMOD suites. Software for continuous releases, accidental toxic and flammable chemical releases, and explosion safety is available.

This software models the dispersion of dense gas releases from an evaporating pool, a horizontal jet, a vertical jet, or an instantaneous volume source. The dispersion is calculated from the conservation equations of mass, momentum, energy, and species. The conservation equations are spatially averaged to treat the cloud as either a continuous plume, a transient puff, or a combination of the two depending on the release duration. SLAB was developed by the USA's Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

The Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU) has developed an Air Quality Information System (AirQUIS) having: an emission inventory data base; dispersion models; and a geographical information system (GIS) module. The dispersion models include a source oriented model (EPISODE), a puff-trajectory model, and models for traffic in street canyons and on roads (ROADAIR and CONTILENK).
