Cooling tower plume abatement and plume modeling: a review

A Review of Hall Thruster Plume Modeling

Hall thrusters are an attractive form of electric propulsion that are being cleveloped to replace chemical systems for many on orbit propulsion tasks on communications satellites. A major concern in the use of these devices is the possible damage their plumes may cause to the host spacecraft. In this paper, the present status of computer modeling of Hall thruster plumes is reviewed in the conte...

Modeling The Interaction Between a Rocket Plume, Scoured Regolith, and a Plume Deflection Fence

As a lunar lander approaches the surface, the impinging exhaust gases entrain regolith into a high velocity spray. This two-phase spray can be damaging to nearby structures, such as a lunar outpost. One way of mitigating this damage is to use a berm or fence to shield nearby structures from the dust spray. In this work, we use a coupled continuum – DSMC (direct simulation Monte Carlo) solver to...

Ocean Circulation and Plume Dispersion Modeling Review, with Emphasis on Orange County Sanitation District's Offshore Outfall and Wastewater Plume

Dynamic Plume Modeling and Real-Time Routing

E mergency response deals with the reaction to a natural or man-made disaster and involves containing the disaster situation. The process is time-critical because many lives depend on how quickly and accurately emergency responders make decisions. During an emergency response, emergency operations centers (EOCs) face different problems depending on the category the emergency falls under (fire, ...
