I am examining PM2.5 ground level - urban pollution (cars). Can I examine mixing of such particles? If so, how?
Thanks

Basically, you can put multi layers set for disperison run, but the better solution for this case could be using PARDUMP output which archives all particles' location.

You can turn on the PARDUMP output option from SETUP (Advanced-Configuration Setup-Concentration-(9) INput and output PARTICLE FILES), and PARDUMP to ASCII tool is available at
