Application of the PALM4U Model Coupled to WRF/Chem Model to Evaluate Wind Comfort and Air Pollution Impacts for Urban Scenarios
(Corresponding) SAN NJOSE R., PEREZ CAMANYO J.
Topic:
Air pollution
Air pollution and wind comfort are both important indicators of quality of life in urban environments. This study examines the influence of a tree area (Green Park) on the wind patterns and air pollution concentrations over a downtown urban area (1 km x 1 km) in Madrid (Spain) with the CFD PALM4U...Read more
Design of Road-Side Barriers to Mitigate Air Pollution near Roads
(Corresponding) Huertas J., Aguirre J., Lopez O., Lopez C.
Topic:
Air pollution
The effects of using solid barriers on the dispersion of air pollutants emitted from the traffic of vehicles on roads located over flat areas were quantified, aiming to identify the geometry that maximizes the mitigation effect of air pollution near the road at the lowest barrier cost. Toward that...Read more

Air pollution assessment for regulatory purposes: a CFD approach design
(Corresponding) Antuña Yudego E., Fernández Pacheco V., Suárez López M., Álvarez Álvarez E., Carús Candás J.
Topic:
Air pollution
In a context of atmospheric pollution levels on the rise, there is a growing interest in the use of pollutant dispersion tools, especially for regulatory purposes involving industrial activities. Environmental organizations from different countries legislate and encourage the use of different types...Read more
Evaluation of atmospheric pollutants dispersion using CFD numerical models
Fernández Pacheco V., (Corresponding) Antuña Yudego E., Suárez López M., Carús Candás J., Álvarez Álvarez E.
Topic:
Air pollution
This paper describes the approach of studying air pollution by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models. It also includes a report of a series of investigations performed in order to illustrate the potential of such models with the aim to give a solution to the dispersion to resolve the...Read more
