Performance Evaluation of the RANS Models in Predicting the Pollutant Concentration Field within a Compact Urban Setting: Effects of the Source Location and Turbulent Schmidt Number

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is used to accurately model and predict the dispersion of a passive scalar in the atmospheric wind flow field within an urban setting. The Mock Urban Setting Tests (MUST) experiment was recreated in this work to test and evaluate various modeling settings and to fo...
