Oil-Fog Tests -
Inthe consideration of any future research, a
continuation of the oil-fog tests of atmospheric dispersion is
an obvious feature, since the equipment, technique and personnel
are all available for the task.
The quality of the sampling
equipment has improved to the point that mobile sampling can now
be used as a reasonably acceptable substitute for the ideal of a
large number of sampling points.
The few data that have been collected by the new traverse"
method ae encouraging, and it is reasonable to expect that
additional work would provide information of much greater
theoretical importance than hose obtained previously at this
site.
Future oil-fog work would involve the measurement of
concentrations resulting fromeffluent emitted from ground-level,
as well as elevated sources.

Stack Tests - A thorough field test of the behavior of heated stack
effluent from stacks of varying diameter and height has not been
undertaken.
Reliable formulae describing this phenomena can result
from a study in which effluent speed, temperature and volume are
controlled, and in which meteorological conditions are measured
to a height well above stack top.
