Abstract

The role of temporal operation profiles on the study of SO^ pollution from domestic heating in Thessaloniki, Greece A. Karagiannidis, K. Karatzas, N. Moussiopoulos, P. Sahm Laboratory of Heat Transfer and Environmental Engineering, Aristotle University Thessaloniki, 54006 Thessaloniki, Greece Abstract The Gaussian dispersion model PAL is applied to study SC>2 pollution due to domestic heating in Thessaloniki alternatively assuming a constant fuel consumption and a reasonable temporal variation of the fuel consumption during the heating period. In the latter case, the heating period divided into subperiods, a typical day being assumed to represent each of the subperiods. For each of the days considered, the diurnal variation profile of actual burner operation is extracted from a source measurement programme conducted in a part of the urban area of Thessaloniki. SC>2 pollution levels due to domestic heating calculated for the above two scenarios are then compared with ava
