5 ABSTRACT The importance of dispersion modelling in low wind conditions lies in the fact that these conditions occur frequently and are crucial for air pollution episodes. The first chapter of the thesis provides the general introduction including some basic concepts of dispersion modelling with special reference to low wind conditions. The understanding of turbulence structure which is quite important for dispersion modelling is inadequate for weak wind situations. Therefore, the spectral characteristics including the eddy dissipation rate of surface-layer turbulence have been studied in the second chapter using the turbulence data collected at IIT Delhi micrometeorological tower. In low wind conditions, the downwind diffusion which is neglected in most of the dispersion models may be comparable with the advection. Therefore, a steady-state mathematical model accounting for downwind, crosswind and vertical diffusion besides the advection has been described in the third chapter. It is validated with the tracer data collected at the IIT Delhi sports ground. The use of conventional methods for estimating dispersion parameters in low wind conditions becomes questionable because of their limited applicability. Thus, various sigma schemes for dispersion parameters have been studied through intercomparison in the fourth chapter using the data collected by the U.S. NOAA in low wind stable conditions. A steady-state mathematical model has been formulated in the fifth chapter by taking linear variation of diffusivities with downwind distance, following Taylor's statistical theory for near-source diffusion. Analytical solution for the resulting advection-diffusion equation with the physically relevant boundary conditions has been obtained using Integral transforms. The model has been validated with the data tor stable as well as convective conditions. The dispersion conditions in weak winds (particularly stable atmosphere) are generally non-stationary and non-homogeneous and thus can not be treated suitably by the models described in the earlier chapters. Therefore, a time-dependent mathematical model based on coupled plume segment and Gaussian puff approaches has been described in the sixth chapter to treat non-stationary and non-homogeneous dispersion from a point source. The model involves representation of a plume by a series of contiguous puffs.
