Summary

Equal burning areas can have different perimeters in the Thomas calculation. Based on Van Rossum (2027), §6.7.

Original illustration for Thomas plume, level 3 Advanced.

Source basis: Van Rossum (2027), §6.7; calculated geometry illustration using the article example.
Alt text: A circle and square of equal area have different perimeters and calculated plume flows.
Accuracy notes: Keep areas equal; this is an arithmetic comparison, not evidence validating arbitrary source shapes.
