Summary

Maximum height of rise of a plume in air whose temperature increases uniformly with height. Based on Milke (2002b), p. 4-304.

Original illustration for Smoke stratification, level 4 Expert.

Source basis: Milke (2002b), p. 4-304 (Equations 41 and 42; exponent −3/8 as in Equation 41); Heskestad (2002), p. 2-8 (Equation 29, same relation)
Alt text: Chart: maximum smoke rise grows slowly with fire size, from about 9 to 48 m, and is lower for steeper temperature gradients.
