An Investigation into the Initial Mixing and Dilution of Identical Plumes from Multiple Stack Configurations

摘要

The interaction between nonbuoyant plumes was studied using a flow visualization technique to examine the initial mixing and a mass spectrometer to investigate the development and dilution of the plumes. The wind tunnel and compressed air system used during the study are described along with the experimental procedures. The variation of resultant plume due to stack configuration changes is discussed.
