Question: 2 . 7 Smoke stack. A chemical plant has a smoke stack 7 5 m tall that discharges a continu - ous flux of carbon

2.7 Smoke stack. A chemical plant has a smoke stack 75m tall that discharges a continu-
ous flux of carbon monoxide (CO) of 0.01kgs. The wind blows with a velocity of 1ms
due east (from the west to the east) and the transverse turbulent diffusion coefficient is
4.5m2s. Neglect longitudinal (downwind) diffusion.
Write the unbounded solution for a continuous source in a cross wind.
Add the appropriate image source(s) to account for the no-flux boundary at the ground
and write the resulting image-source solution for concentration downstream of the re-
lease.
Plot the two-dimensional concentration distribution downstream of the smoke stack for
the plane 2m above the ground.
For radial distance r away from the smoke stack, where do the maximum concentrations
occur?
