| Abstract |
This report presents the results of the first phase of a research programme into the dispersion of hazardous releases in the vicinity of buildings. The current status of airflow and dispersion modelling around buildings is reviewed and requirements for future efforts are identified. Information was obtained for both CFD modelling of this problem and also for full scale and model scale tests. The report includes a specification for the second phase of the project. |
