Three of the following raise the effective stack height. Which lowers it?

Stack tip downwash

Higher gas temperature

Higher exit velocity

Greater physical stack height

  • A.Stack tip downwash
  • B.Higher gas temperature
  • C.Higher exit velocity
  • D.Greater physical stack height

Answer: A

Correct answer: Stack tip downwash

Downwash is the only one that lowers effective height: the plume is drawn into the stack’s wake instead of rising, so the effective height falls towards the physical height or below. A hotter gas, a faster jet and a taller stack all raise it.
