Small scale field experiments of chlorine dispersion

Abstract The objective of this paper is to increase current knowledge on the dispersion of a small plume of chlorine using medium scale field experiments. An experiment using a peacock tail spray was undertaken to study the mitigation of the chlorine cloud.
