| Abstract | ||
| In this work, the advection-diffusion equation was solved in two dimensions to calculate the normalized crosswind integrated concentration by Laplace technique. Considering that the wind speed is constant and we have two models of the vertical eddy diffusivity, one depends on downwind distance and the other model depends on vertical distance. A comparison between our proposed two models, Gaussian, previous work and observed data measured at Copenhagen, Denmark, have been carried out. One finds that there is a good agreement between predicted (2) model and the observed concentrations than predicted (1), Gaussian and previous work. From the statistical technique, one finds that all models are inside a factor of two with observed data. Regarding to Normalized mean square error (NMSE) and Fraction Bais (FB), proposed model (2) is performance well with observed data than the predicted (1), Gaussian and previous work in unstable condition. | ||
