The effect of buoyancy on pollution trapping in the wake of a step
Megan Davies Wykes
Abstrak
When wind blows over a row of houses, what happens to pollution emitted by vehicles driving in the building wakes? This talk will describe reduced-scale laboratory experiments that investigate a simplified version of this common urban fluid mechanics problem. The experiments focus on the effect of buoyancy on pollution dispersion in the wake of a step. The results are compared to a simple model that describes the competing effects of inertia and buoyancy forces in the wake and how these affect pollution trapping behind the step.
