Dispersion within a Stable Layer
Fanning plume No ceiling reflection [ET=0 in eqn.
(11.1)] Use values under stable conditions.
y> z
Dispersion between Two stable Layers
Plume trapping y should be adjusted to a value greater
than the one determined by the P-G curves.
Reduce number of reflections to only one.Extreme case – if plume fully penetrate the elevated inversion, the ground level concentration is set equal to zero.

The ISC3 ModelBPIP
ISCST3 FundamentalsBasic plume equation For a steady-state Gaussian plume, the
hourly concentration at downwind distance x and crosswind distance y is:

ISCST3 Fundamentals H=hs+h (no stack tip downwash correction) Determine applicability of Huber-Snyder procedures
Not applicable if: H>2.5hb, or H>hb+1.5hw
Otherwise applicable Huber-Snyder method – Modify y and z
If H<1.2hb, modify both y and z If 1.2hb<H<2.5hb, modify z only Detailed calculations for modifying y and z are on Text
p.14-14 thru 14-16 The method cannot address cavity issues (cavity is
assumed to be in existence within 3hw for tall buildings or 3hb for squat buildings)
ISCST3 Fundamentals Schulman-Scire ProceduresApplicable when hs<hb+0.5LB
The method adjusts z’ by decay factor A: z’’ =A z’ Calculation of A:
A=1, if hehb A=(hb-he)/2LB+1.0, if hb<he hb+2LB A=0.0, if he> hb+2LB

Using ISCST3Running ISCST3 Prepare input files
Run stream file – Use WordPad, Notepad, or other text editor to create and edit file Select modeling parameters for each sections (CO, SO, RE,
ME, and OU) For each source
Digitize stack locations (x,y,z) Provide stack parameters (emission rate, stack height,
stack temperature, exit velocity, and stack diameter) Digitize buildings, perform building downwash analysis
using BPIP (discussed later), and cut the results from BPIP output and paste them into the SO section
Using ISCST3 Digitize receptors
Receptor grids – range and spacing (coarse grid, medium grid, fine grid, tight grid, property line receptors, discrete receptors)
Place a receptor at each node of grids For each receptor, digitize x, y, and z Consider digital terrain data
Met data file From agencies Unprocessed data vs. model ready data ASCII vs. binary files

BPIPBPIP – Building Profile Input ProgramUsed to generate building profile data to be included into ISC3 for building downwash analysisFor each stack, BPIP determines influencing nearby buildings and calculate GEPFor each stack, BPIP calculates building heights and projected widths of influencing buildings based on 36 wind directions. The output is used in ISC3 for downwash analysis.
