Abstract

Paper wants to show performances of new computer code based on Navier-Stokes equations, that is able to predict spatial flow-dynamic pollution of heavy gases coming from continues or "single event" source in function of running time. Starting from gases physical - chemical characteristics code takes in account both presence of obstacles and climate parameters so that is possible to know polluting concentration levels in each point of investigated area running the time. Starting both from mono and bi-dimensions code created by Ispra-CCR and NCSR "DEMOKRTTOS", the Applied Physics Institute of Catania Engineering Faculty is lined-up basic code with experimental tests at AGIP -Gela petrochemical-works by means of fol
