A point source with effective stack height of 50 m emits 80 g/s of SO2 on a clear summer Hay with surface winds at 4 m/s. Winds at 50 m are 5 m/s. An inversion layer starts at an elevation of 250 m. e) Estimate the ground-level SO2 concentration at a distance of 4 km downwind from the stack. b) If there had been no inversion layer, estimate the concentration 4 km downwind.

Question
A point source with effective stack height of 50 m emits 80 gls of SO, on a clear summer
N with surface winds at 4 m/s. Winds at 50 m are 5 m/s. An inversion layer starts at an
elevation of 250 m.
le) Estimate the ground-level SO2 concentration at a distance of 4 km downwind from
the stack.
b) If there had been no inversion layer, estimate the concentration 4 km downwind.
