A. Huser et al., APPLICATION OF K-EPSILON MODEL TO THE STABLE ABL - POLLUTION IN COMPLEX TERRAIN, Journal of wind engineering and industrial aerodynamics, 67-8, 1997, pp. 425-436
A procedure for the prediction of stable atmospheric boundary layers (
ABL) over complex terrain is developed. The standard k-epsilon model a
nd the computer programme CFX are used as a basis. The turbulence mode
l is modified for the prediction of stable ABL according to recent pub
lished works. The procedure employs databases containing topology, roa
d and traffic data, and is applied to estimate ground pollution concen
trations in a stable atmosphere over rough terrain. Examples from road
planning in Drammen City show comparison with measurements and effect
s of planned roads.
