RESEARCH ON CIRCULATION IN NUCLEAR CLOUDS

Abstract

Theoretical evaluations of circulation models were made, and placed on testing the models' capacities to accurately describe observed phenomena and on the feasibility of their use in a large-scale particle motion simulation computer program. Additional sources of experimental circulation data were found. Data adequate to test, at least in part, the mathematical models and provide information necessary for model calibration were collected from these sources. Particle motion simulations on a pilot scale were made; trajectory stability problems encountered in the simulation calculations were studied and solutions to these problems have been found.
