ADPIC A THREE-DIMENSIONAL COMPUTER CODE FOR THE STUDY OF POLLUTANT DISPERSAL AND DEPOSITION UNDER COMPLEX CONDITIONS

摘要

In line with the widening need and effort in the field of pollutant transport and diffusion studies from local to ex¬tended regional scales, it has become apparent that a fully three-dimensional approach must be taken, and in order to do computer studies, three-dimensional computer codes must be developed. ADPIC is such a code. It is a three-dimensional, Cartesian, particle-diffusion code, capable of calculating the time-dependent dispersion of inert or radioactive air pollutants under many conditions, including stratified shear flow, calms, topography, and wet and dry deposition, for individual or multiple instantaneous or continuous sources and space- and time-variable diffusion parameters.
