Building downwash algorithm for the OML atmospheric
dispersion model

Research Notes from NERI no. 123
Abstract
The report describes the results of studies aimed at
improving the building down-wash algorithm, which is currently used in the
Danish OML atmospheric dispersion model. These studies will have to be followed
by additional work before a revised model can be brought into general
operation. The report contains a brief review of methods for treatment of
building effects as they are found in the scientific literature. It also
describes and examines the current procedure for treatment of building downwash
in the OML model. Finally, the principles of a new, proposed algorithm is
outlined. The studies reported were carried out as part
of a project supported by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency. They
constitute the first phase in the development of a new building downwash
procedure for the OML model.
