Implementation of a Simplified Micromixing Model Inside a Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Code for the Estimation of Concentration Variances and Peaks
In the frame of the modelling simulation of odour nuisances, the estimation of concentration peaks, representing values averaged over a relatively short time of the order of the interval between subsequent breathes, is of fundamental importance.Dispersion models currently used in this field cannot reconstruct this kind of values at relatively high
