CLOUD TRAVEL SLIDE RULES FOR THE DETERMINATION OF DOWNWIND TRAVEL AND AREA COVERAGE

Abstract

Slide rules have been contrived for evaluating O. G. Sutton's mathematical models for estimating the downwind travel and area coverage from an instantaneous point source of vapor or very fine aerosol disseminated and sampled at ground level. Using these slide rules, the nonmathematician can employ the mathematical theory for making preliminary weapons-effects predictions necessary in handling everyday problems encountered in research and development of chemical-weapons systems.
