This paper addresses the development of a computer-based mathematical model for the prediction of the dispersion of dense gas. The basic model for dispersion over flat terrain is outlined and its performance is illustrated by comparison with a range of field trial information. It is then shown how a number of separate algorithms for the effects of obstacles on dispersion can be combined into a single...
