Performance of ASHRAE models in assessing pollutant dispersion from rooftop emissions
The performance of different ASHRAE models besides their general development since 1997 forms the basis of this article. The experimental results of a few recent near-field pollutant dispersion studies are compared to those produced by ASHRAE models. These cases include isolated buildings and adjacent building configurations. In fact, ASHRAE can only be used to estimate rooftop dilutions on an emitting building and does not provide formulations to estimate dilutions on adjacent building surfaces. The results from this study show that ASHRAE models provide reasonable dilution estimates for low exhaust momentum ratios (M), while previous ASHRAE models predict lower dilutions than wind tunnel data for all cases. Furthermore, ASHRAE 2011 predicts reasonable dilutions on the leeward wall of the emitting building, which is an important contribution of the current ASHRAE model. It is suggested that future ASHRAE model versions should be capable of estimating reasonable dilutions on adjacent building surfaces for realistic urban scenarios, by taking into account the spacing between buildings.
