Chemistry, street canyon geometry, and emissions effects on NO2 “hotspots” and regulatory “wiggle room” by Yuqing Dai, Xiaoming Cai, Jian Zhong, A. Robert MacKenzie

“…A multi-box framework with volatile organic compound (VOC) chemistry has been evaluated against large-eddy simulation (LES) data and observations, and then used to simulate NO2 at street-canyon “hotspots”. 42,000 sensitivity studies — varying nitrogen oxides (NOx) and VOC emission strength, and primary NO2 fraction ( $$f_{{{{\mathrm{NO}}}}_2}$$ f NO 2 ) emitted within each of five streetscape cases — show the importance of detailed VOC chemistry, even in regular canyons (aspect ratio, AR = 1) when the ambient wind is weak. For a midsummer central London scenario, the inclusion of chemistry moves the canyon from compliance to out-of-compliance with the 1-hour NO2 standard. …”
