Prediction and analysis of near-road concentrations using a reduced-form emission/dispersion model
BACKGROUND Near-road exposures of traffic-related air pollutants have been receiving increased attention due to evidence linking emissions from high-traffic roadways to adverse health outcomes. To date, most epidemiological and risk analyses have utilized simple but crude exposure indicators, most typically proximity measures, such as the distance between freeways and residences, to represent a...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Mathematical Model for Prediction of Pollutants Emission in D. I. Diesel Engines
Major pollutants emission from Direct-Injection (D.I) diesel engines are predicted by means of a mathematical model. In order to construct such a model, an integral Multi-Zone Combustion Model (MZCM) is formulated, which basically consists of jet mixing and combustion submodels. In MZCM, variation of injection pressure is considered. Also time period of ignition delay is predicted by considerin...
متن کاملModeling multi-scale aerosol dynamics and micro-environmental air quality near a large highway intersection using the CTAG model.
A new methodology, referred to as the multi-scale structure, integrates "tailpipe-to-road" (i.e., on-road domain) and "road-to-ambient" (i.e., near-road domain) simulations to elucidate the environmental impacts of particulate emissions from traffic sources. The multi-scale structure is implemented in the CTAG model to 1) generate process-based on-road emission rates of ultrafine particles (UFP...
متن کاملNumerical validation of a near-field fugitive dust model for vehicles moving on unpaved surfaces
This paper presents a numerical model for evaluating fugitive dust emission and transport at near-field induced by a moving vehicle. The dust emission model describes the quantity and location of emitted dust. The transport of the dust is captured by the Lagrangian particle tracking method, and turbulence dispersion of particles is modeled stochastically. The presented model is validated ∗corre...
متن کاملAnalysis of air quality data near roadways using a dispersion model
We used a dispersion model to analyze measurements made during a field study conducted by the U.S. EPA in July–August 2006, to estimate the impact of traffic emissions on air quality at distances of tens of meters from an eight-lane highway located in Raleigh, NC. The air quality measurements consisted of long path optical measurements of NO at distances of 7 and 17m from the edge of the highwa...
