OBS

... of the World Meteorological Organization. The Technical Cooperation Programme provides the vehicle for the organized transfer of meteorological and hydrological knowledge and proven methodology among Members of the Organization. Particular emphasis is placed on the development of a wide range of services(related to weather prediction, climatology and hydrology) ;on the development and operation of key World Weather Watch infrastructures; and on supporting the Education and Training Programme. There is a concentrated effort to support development that will contribute to capacity building as part of the implementation of Agenda 21.

[...] de l'Organisation météorologique mondiale. Le Programme de coopération technique constitue le cadre de l'échange organisé des connaissances météorologiques et hydrologiques et des techniques éprouvées entre le Membres de l'OMM, le principal objectif visé étant de faciliter la fourniture d'une large gamme de services (dans les domaines de la prévision météorologique, de la climatologie et de l'hydrologie), la mise en place et l'exploitation des éléments clés de la VMM et l'exécution du Programme d'enseignement et de formation professionnelle. Il est prévu de privilégier les projets visant à renforcer les capacités endogènes dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre d'Action 21.

CONT

Even supposing that the plume rises were a clear concept, and its value correctly known, we still have the enormous variations in the spreading of known passive plume.

CONT

Plume Geometry and Rise. Once a puff is released from a point source it will move away from it with a speed and direction determined by the wind.

CONT

At the request of member utilities, EPRI is managing a multi-year collaborative applied research effort focused on developing improved plume rise and downwash sub-models for incorporation into regulatory air quality dispersion models.... A field measurements program was performed from February 10-March 5, 1994 to characterize plume rise and building-induced downwash at a representative combustion turbine facility, under a variety of meteorological conditions.... PRIME [Plume Rise Model Enhancements] explicitly calculates the local slope of the mean streamlines as a function of building shape and wind angle, and coupled with a numberical plume rise model, determines the change in plume centerline location with downwind distance.

PHR

To characterize plume rise, to computer plume rise in models, to develop plume rise models, to develop plume rise modules, to evaluate plume rise modules.

PHR

Numerical plume rise model.

PHR

Plume rise algorithms, plume rise models, plume rise modules.

DEF

Différence de niveau observée entre le point d'émission des panaches et la hauteur qu'ils atteignent sous l'effet du gradient thermique et de leur énergie cinétique.

CONT

[...] à cause de sa poussée et de sa vitesse, le panache s'élève jusqu'à une certaine hauteur au-dessus de la cheminée, appelée l'élévation du panache, et il se disperse [...], retombant éventuellement sur le sol.

CONT

Diffusion pour sources ponctuelles. Le modèle gaussien : classes de stabilité, coefficients de dispersion. L'élévation du panache. Rabattement, élévation du terrain, proximité d'une masse d'eau et présence d'inversion.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Estudios y análisis del medio ambiente

CONT

Fórmulas de elevación del penacho. La altura del penacho se usa en los cálculos del término Vertical. Las ecuaciones de cantidad de movimiento en la elevación del penacho dependientes de la distancia, como se describe en (Bowers, et al., 1979), se usan para determinar si el penacho resulta afectado por apantallamientos para los cálculos de bañado de edificios.

OBS

The Instruments and Methods of Observation Programme(IMOP) coordinates, standardizes and advances technological systems and methods for meteorological observations and measurements. The programme publishes technical reports and guidance material on performance characteristics of instruments and on observing practices. It coordinates calibrations and intercomparisons of instruments and develops quality-control standards and procedures. It also develops guidelines and proposal for capacity building and arranges and supports training programmes for instrument experts and technicians.
