Numerical Simulation of Pollutant Dispersion from Road with Barrier

ENG: The impact of protective barriers on air pollution dispersion near the road was examined using developed numerical model. To simulate wind flow over barrier model of potential flow was used. To simulate pollutant dispersion from road convective-diffusive equation was used. Difference schemes of splitting were used for numerical integration of governing equations. Dispersion of pollutant was modeled for scenarios with no barrier near the road, vertical solid barrier, vertical barriers with additional elements, combination “vertical barrier and plate on the pavilion”. To estimate the efficiency of each scenario potential hazard risk indicator was used. Results of numerical experiment are presented.
