    April 1976.Includes bibliographical references.CER75-76RNM-JEC24.Tests were conducted in the Colorado State University Meteorological Wind Tunnel facility, to study the gaseous plumes released from stacks associated with the Harrington Power Station of the Southwestern Public Service Company. The tests were conducted over a model power plant to scale 1/250 including all significant structures, topography, and roughness elements in the vicinity. Effects of wind orientation, stack height, plant operation load, and wind velocity were established. Data obtained included photographs and color motion pictures of smoke plume trajectories and contaminant concentration downwind of the power plant at ground level sampling positions.Prepared under contract to Southwestern Public Service Company, Amarillo, Texas

    The METCRAX II Field Experiment: A Study of Downslope Windstorm-Type Flows in Arizona\u2019s Meteor Crater

    Get PDF
    The second Meteor Crater Experiment (METCRAX II) was conducted in October 2013 at Arizona\u2019s Meteor Crater. The experiment was designed to investigate nighttime downslope windstorm 12type flows that form regularly above the inner southwest sidewall of the 1.2-km diameter crater as a southwesterly mesoscale katabatic flow cascades over the crater rim. The objective of METCRAX II is to determine the causes of these strong, intermittent, and turbulent inflows that bring warm-air intrusions into the southwest part of the crater. This article provides an overview of the scientific goals of the experiment; summarizes the measurements, the crater topography, and the synoptic meteorology of the study period; and presents initial analysis results

    What determines auditory similarity? The effect of stimulus group and methodology.

    Get PDF
    Two experiments on the internal representation of auditory stimuli compared the pairwise and grouping methodologies as means of deriving similarity judgements. A total of 45 undergraduate students participated in each experiment, judging the similarity of short auditory stimuli, using one of the methodologies. The experiments support and extend Bonebright's (1996) findings, using a further 60 stimuli. Results from both methodologies highlight the importance of category information and acoustic features, such as root mean square (RMS) power and pitch, in similarity judgements. Results showed that the grouping task is a viable alternative to the pairwise task with N > 20 sounds whilst highlighting subtle differences, such as cluster tightness, between the different task results. The grouping task is more likely to yield category information as underlying similarity judgements
