摘要: |
A Federal Aviation Administrations (FAA) Emission and Dispersion Modeling System (EDMS) study was initiated in the Spring of 2001 with the goal of measuring the initial plume characteristics of jet exhaust plumes. These initial plume characteristics include plume rise, horizontal plume standard deviation, and vertical plume standard deviation. This data is needed as input to dispersion models for use in complying with air quality requirements at airports. Very little research had been done in this area, and input values previously used in the EDMS were primarily based on engineering judgment. With the improvements being made to EDMS, it became apparent that greater detail was needed for these data to continue the improvement in estimating local pollutant concentrations. The opportunity to conduct such a study presented itself when a major airport, Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), needed similar data on plume characteristics. |
