3.1.3 Plume-Centerline-Height Reduction and Particulate Deposition Equation<br />

Calculation results for gravitational subsidence are obtained with the next two equations.<br />

(1) Plume-centerline-height reduction<br />

The reduction in the plume centerline height due to gravitational subsidence is accounted for<br />

with the following equation.<br />

He → He −Vs x / u<br />

(2) Particulate deposition equation<br />

The amount of the substance in the atmosphere released in a given period declines over time<br />

because some of the settled particulate matter is absorbed by the surface. The deposition<br />

volumes and the atmospheric pollutant phenomena caused by deposition are accounted for<br />

here with the dry deposition correction equation given below, taken from the manual on<br />
