Air Pollution Dispersion Modeling

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on resources for learning about air pollution dispersion modeling, highlighting several online articles from Wikipedia that cover topics such as atmospheric dispersion modeling, terminology, and specific models. Two recommended books for beginners are "Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates" by D.B. Turner and "Fundamentals Of Stack Gas Dispersion" by M.R. Beychok. A free resource, "Air Dispersion Modeling Terminology," is also available for those interested. The conversation takes a turn when a participant criticizes another for perceived self-promotion and spamming by linking to their own website.

For those of you who are interested in learning about air pollution dispersion modeling, I recommend that you read the following online articles at Wikipedia:

Atmospheric dispersion modeling
Air pollution dispersion modeling books
Air pollution dispersion terminology
Compilation of air dispersion models
Fundamentals of Stack Gas Dispersion
Roadway air dispersion modeling

For those who are complete newcomers to the dispersion modeling field, I particularly recommend either of these two books:

Turner, D.B. (1994). Workbook of atmospheric dispersion estimates: an introduction to dispersion modeling, 2nd Edition, CRC Press. ISBN 156670023X. (Availble from http://www.crcpress.com)

Beychok, M.R. (2005). Fundamentals Of Stack Gas Dispersion, 4th Edition, self-published. ISBN 0964458802. (Available from http://www.air-dispersion.com)

Click here if you would like a free copy of "Air Dispersion Modeling Terminology" emailed to you as a Microsoft Word document.

Interesting new way to post spam by basically posting your own website on Wiki. It's nice to see you've sunk to a new low. Go back to Eng-tips.
 

Thread 'How could I make it so ferrofluid drops do not coalesce?'

Hello! I've been brainstorming on how to prevent a lot of ferrofluid droplets that are in the same container. This is for an art idea that I have (I absolutely love it when science and art come together) where I want it to look like a murmuration of starlings. Here's a link of what they look like: How could I make this happen? The only way I can think of to achieve the desired effect is to have varying droplet sizes of ferrofluid suspended in a clear viscous liquid. Im hoping for the...

Thread 'How do you fabricate microfluidic chips in your lab?'

Hello everyone! I am curious to learn how laboratories handle in-house chip manufacturing using soft lithography for microfluidics research. In the lab where I worked, only the mask for lithography was made by an external company, whereas the mold and chip fabrication were carried out by us. The process of making PDMS chips required around 30 min–1 h of manual work between prepolymer casting, punching/cutting, and plasma bonding. However, the total time required to make them was around 4...
