Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Given an industrial plant with emissions at a rate of 100 g/s and wind conditions at 5 m/s, calculate the area affected up to a distance of 10 km using the Gaussian model. Assume sigma y = 50 m and sigma z = 10 m.
💡 Hint: Apply the Gaussian formula and integrate across the specified distance range.
Question 2
Critically analyze the impact of assuming additive contributions when modeling pollutant dispersion near a busy roadway and an industrial complex where both sources are in proximity.
💡 Hint: Think about various pollution sources and how their interactions complicate modeling.
