Airborne field study of power plant plume dispersion in stable atmospheres. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5915070
This report presents the results of a study to determine how well the measured parameters for a power plant plume in rolling terrain agree with those used for EPA's point source models. During October 1979, field measurements were taken in an attempt to quantify the horizontal and vertical SO2 dispersion parameters of the plume from the Dickerson, Maryland generating station operated by Potomac Electric Power Company, under stable atmospheric conditions. Direct plume impact on Sugarloaf Mountain was also studied.
