Title: Research on time-space distribution feature and control strategy for traffic, pollution of Zhengzhou City in China

Conference ·
OSTI ID:682200

The authors have carried out the on-the-spot investigation and live survey on the fume concentration of the tail-gas of automobiles, traffic discharge and meteorological elements at the section of Nongye Road and Wenhua Road crossing which is a representative one of Zhengzhou. On the basis of this, the authors analyze the corresponding relationships between them and between traffic discharge and noise by using one-dimensional uniform motion and equidistant traffic models. The results show: (1) The traffic discharge changes obviously during the whole day, which is concentrated in the daytime to midnight. Among the traffic discharge surveyed, taxis account for 56.4% and motorcycles 20.6%. (2) There is a close relationship between fumes concentration in tail-gas and traffic discharge. That is to say, the concentration of fumes rises by the increase of traffic discharge. (3) The concentration of CO and NO{sub x} in the fumes decrease as the wind velocity up and temperature rises whereas the TSP increases as the wind velocity up, and changes little with the variations of temperature. (4) Traffic noise and the value of sound level increase with the increase of traffic discharge. The substantive factors which affect traffic noise are the velocity and the distance of automobiles.
