[ RadSafe ] particle cloud expansion

[Robert Young]

Check out:

"Workbook of Atmospheric Dispersion Estimates: An Introduction to
Dispersion Modeling", Second Edition
D. Bruce Turner    Consultant, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA 

As I recall, "Turner's Workbook" used to be the gold standard in
dispersion modeling, however I am not 100% sure that this is the same
turner, nor if the second edition is the latest edition.

Does anyone have the equation and reference for how fast a airborne
particle release expands?

I recall some of the equation and it includes particle size, density
and air temperature.

This would be for an environment where there are essentially no air
currents.
