The main objective of this paper is to estimate the plume dispersion parameters in lateral direction (σy) and vertical direction (σz) by using power law wind speed and the scheme of eddy diffusivity in unstable condition. Comparison among our model and algebraic [1] and integral [2] formulations were held. We find that our model and two other models are in agreement with observed data.
