Description: Dr. Tom Spicer and Dr. Jerry Havens of the University of Arkansas developed this model (for the U.S. Coast Guard and the Gas Research Institute) primarily for simulating the dispersion of denser-than-air flammable gases. The U.S. EPA later extended DEGADIS for dispersion modeling of vertical jets. Implementation of DEGADIS on personal computers was sponsored by the Gas Research Institute and the American Petroleum Institute.
HITERM Project Technical Documents The DEGADIS model was originally developed for the U.S. Coast Guard and the Gas Research Institute primarily for simulation of the dispersion of cryogenic flammable gases. Subsequent work sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency extended DEGADIS for simulation of the dispersion of vertical jets. Implementation of DEGADIS on a personal computer was sponsored by the Gas Research Institute and the American Petroleum Institute.
