Assertion (A): Exit velocity is kept above about one and a half times the design wind speed.

Reason (R): Below that ratio the plume is drawn into the low pressure wake behind the stack.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

The reason states exactly why the assertion holds. Below a ratio of about 1.5 the plume is captured by the low-pressure wake behind the stack and the effective height collapses, so the minimum velocity is specified precisely to keep the jet clear of it.
