Three of the following reduce ground level concentration. Which does not?

Reducing exit velocity to save fan power

Raising the physical stack height

Reducing the emission rate

Raising the gas exit temperature

  • A.Reducing the emission rate
  • B.Raising the gas exit temperature
  • C.Reducing exit velocity to save fan power
  • D.Raising the physical stack height

Answer: C

Correct answer: Reducing exit velocity to save fan power

The other three all help: a taller stack and a hotter gas both raise the effective height, and a lower emission rate reduces the concentration in proportion. Reducing exit velocity does the opposite - it cuts momentum rise and invites stack tip downwash, so the fan power saved is paid for in higher ground-level concentrations.
