ADMS - Atmospheric Dispersion Modelling System,
Industrial Pollution Model: ADMS 3
ADMS 3 is an advanced model for calculating concentrations of pollutants emitted both
continuously from point, line, volume and area sources, or discretely from point sources.
ADMS 3 includes algorithms which take account of the following:
-
effects of main site building
-
complex terrain
-
wet deposition
-
gravitational settling and dry
deposition
-
short term fluctuations in
concentration
-
chemical reactions
-
radioactive decay and gamma-dose
-
plume rise as a function of distance
-
jets and directional releases
-
averaging time ranging from very short
to annual
-
finally condensed plume visibility

We would also be pleased to supply any of the input data used in the cited
ADMS validation studies.
ADMS is accepted
as an alternate model for use in the USA, for details please visit:

Supplement to
CERC's presentation to the US-EPA's 7th Modeling Conference
Consequence Analysis and validation studies are provided to supplement the presentation
of the ADMS models by Dr. David Carruthers by comparing ADMS to models
discussed at the US-EPA's 7th Modeling Conference. A copy of that
presentation is provided in several formats for your convenience.
