STREAM DISPERSION AT SELECTED SITES

By RICHARD G. GODFREY and BERNARD J. FREDERICK

ABSTRACT

Eleven tests were conducted to study the dispersion patterns 

of a radiotracer in five natural stream channels and in one canal. 

The radiotracer, gold-198, was injected as a line source. The 

patterns of dispersion that were observed in these channels were 

compared with patterns predicted by the theoretical model for 

one-dimensional flow developed by G. I. Taylor (1954). Analysis 

of the relation between time and concentration of the tracer at 

several sections in each of the six reaches shows that his theoretical model is not adequate to describe the dispersion patterns 

actually observed. Dispersion coefficients determined from the 

test data, though constant as theoretically predicted, are about 

four to 35 times greater than those predicted by Taylor.

INTRODUCTION

Industrial and domestic wastes, both treated and untreated, are frequently added to the flow of streams. 

Because these same streams may constitute a major 

source of industrial and public water supply, it is important to know how these wastes disperse and how they 

are diluted as they move downstream.

Pioneering work in the study of dispersal processes 

has been largely devoted to describing these processes 

in pipes and in laboratory flumes. Through these studies, 

there developed one-dimensional dispersion equations 

to model the processes.

The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the 

U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, began a series of investigations of dispersion processes in natural channels 

in 1959. One of these investigations, reported herein, 

approached the problem by conducting radiotracer 

tests in five reaches of natural channels and in 

one reach of a large irrigation canal. The purpose of 

these tests was to obtain data for an evaluation of the 

one-dimensional approach to describing dispersion in 

large open channels such as rivers and canals.

Turbulent flow in natural channels causes the tracer 

cloud, as it is moved downstream, to disperse over 

greater distances, and thereby, to decrease in concentration. This study seeks, first, to describe changes in

this dispersion with time. If the dispersion increases 

directly with time, for long times after release of the 

tracer, then a part of the one-dimensional theory is 

verified; that is, constant dispersion coefficient. Further, 

Taylor (1954) shows that the dispersion increases rapidly at short times after tracer release. Evidence of this 

critical period in the stream dispersion pattern also will 

be sought. Next, the study seeks to verify theoretical 

values of the dispersion coefficient as proposed by Taylor 

(1954). Noncomparability of coefficient values may indicate that convective effects other than those considered by Taylor play an important role in describing 

the dispersion processes; if noncomparability is the case, 

then the tracer data form a base for further research on 

the influence of convection.

THEORETICAL MODELS

Mathematical models describe the turbulent dispersion process in pipes and open channels assuming rather 

idealized conditions, including uniform flow. These conditions are rarely, if ever, found in natural streams. 

However, certain information from these models, both 

qualitative and quantitative, can be used as the basis 

for the analysis of the field data.

The basic equations for turbulent dispersion under 

steady uniform flow may be written as

d<7 (1)

in which C is the mean concentration, V is the mean 

velocity, K is the mean effective or bulk dispersion 

coefficient, t is time, and x is the distance along the 

flow direction. This form of the modified Fickian equation is based on the assumption of a constant K which 

occurs only after the diffusing material has traveled a 

considerable distance downstream from the point of

Kl
K2 TRANSPORT OF RADIONUCLIDES BY STREAMS

injection (Taylor, 1954). A solution of the above equation that satisfies the initial condition of the introduction of concentrated material at x 0 when £=0 is

C= M exp (2)

in which M is the quantity of tracer injected and A is 

the cross sectional area of the stream.

Several observations about equation 2 can be made: 

The maximum concentration, with respect to x, will 

occur at x=Vt and will decrease as t becomes large, 

hence as x becomes large. Also the dispersion pattern 

with respect to x is normally distributed with a mean 

of x=Vt, and a standard deviation of ax= ^/2Kt. Note 

that the solution predicts the pattern of dispersion for 

a given value of K. K must be evaluated independently 

from theory or by experiments that yield a normal 

dispersion pattern: The theoretical evaluation of K has 

been attempted by Taylor (1954) for pipe flow and by 

Elder (1959), Parker (1958), and I. E. Thomas (written 

commun., 1958) for open-channel flow.

Taylor assumed that the basic mechanism, which 

produces the one-dimensional dispersion coefficient K, 

is the combination of convective transport by longitudinal velocities and diffusive transport by turbulence 

in the transveise directions. In evaluating the diffusive 

transport, Taylor assumed that the transverse diffusion 

coefficient is equal to the momentum exchange coefficient in turbulent flows (Reynolds analogy). Combining 

this diffusive transport with the convective transport 

that is obtained from an empirical velocity distribution, 

he summed the rate of material transfer across a plane 

moving with the mean velocity, V, and obtained the 

effective dispersion coefficient

(3)

in which a is the radius of the pipe and V* is the shear 

velocity.

Elder (1959) analyzed the example of dispersion in an 

open channel using a method similar to one used by 

Taylor. He assumed a logarithmic velocity distribution 

and found

^£=5.93^7* (4)

in which d is the depth of flow.

I. E. Thomas (written commun., 1958) used Taylor's 

method to analyze a free surface flow. He assumed a 

power law velocity distribution,

V= 

" V" TTl

in which V is the local velocity in the x direction at 

height y. He found K to have the following form:

(5)

Thomas evaluated <£(r/) and ^(17) for r/ equal to 6, 7, 8, 9, 

and 10. The term ^(17) in equation 5 is the component 

due to the longitudinal transfer and is small compared 

to the $(17) term.

in all tests the velocity was described solely as a 

function of the distance from the bed, which is not 

true in manmade waterways and most natural streams. 

Tracy and Lester (1961) found that the velocity 

distribution in the vertical direction is affected by 

flume sidewalk for a distance about three times the 

depth away from the walls.

In evaluating his models, each investigator conducted either laboratory or field tests. Taylor was 

remarkably successful in substantiating his results with 

laboratory tests in small pipes at velocities of 7 fps (feet 

per second); the Reynolds number equaled 1.93X104. 

With lower velocities (4 fps), Taylor found that the 

time-concentration curve was not symmetrical but 

steeper on the rising limb as compared to the falling 

limb. He attributed this to the laminar layer being 

thicker for lower velocities than for higher velocities 

and retaining a part of the tracer for a longer period. In 

applying his model to the pipeline data of Hull and 

Kent (1952), Taylor showed that the observed value of 

the dispersion coefficient was about twice the theoretical 

value. One other significant observation was the effect 

of curvature in a pipe. The observed dispersion coefficient for a coil where the radius of curvature was 96 

times the radius of the pipe also was double the theoretical value. Thus the assumption of uniform flow is 

limiting because the magnitude of the dispersion 

coefficient readily reflects any slight departures from 

uniformity.

Elder's experiments in a channel with depths from 

1 to 1.5 cm gave skewed distance-concentration curves. 

He attributed this skew to that part of the tracer being 

carried near the wall in the viscous sublayer. In determining the dispersion coefficients from his tests, 

Elder ignored the long tails and was able to check his 

theoretical results within 10 percent.

Thomas conducted a field study in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal for verification of his theoretical 

model. The canal, 26 feet deep and 160 feet wide, had a 

uniform cross section. The dispersion coefficients determined from the experimental data were about 12 

times greater than those computed from his model. 

The experimental results were five times greater than 

those from Elder's model and twice those from Taylor's
STREAM DISPERSION AT SELECTED SITES K3

model. Again the time-concentration curves were 

skewed.

When the dispersion coefficient is determined experimentally, it is preferable to express it in a dimensionless 

form:

K n

in which B is a dimensionless constant and R is the 

hydraulic radius (Glover, 1962). As for the magnitude 

of B, it-is expected that the experimental data will 

yield higher values than those obtained from theoretical 

considerations because of the existence of the velocity 

gradient across the channel which is not accounted for 

in the theoretical models. Also, the effects of temporary 

storage of the tracer and channel curvature tend to 

increase the value of B over the theoretical value. 

The variance of G(x, t) at time t from the relation 

defined in equation 2 is

(x-Vt)2C(x, t)dx

and, the dispersion coefficient used in this paper is 

that as defined above:

DISPERSION EXPERIMENTS IN STREAMS

Prior to the present tests, I. E. Thomas (written 

commun., 1958), Parker (1958), and Simpson, Beetem, 

and Ruggles (1958) conducted other dispersion experiments in natural channels or canals. In each test the 

tracer was released from a point source for a finite 

time period. Subsequent to the present tests, Glover 

(1962) used a multiple point source in a braided stream 

to simulate a plane source.

The tests described in this report help to broaden 

the range of conditions, experimentally studied, to 

evaluate the influence of channel geometry and flow 

characteristics on dispersion.

Six reaches were selected (table 1) to evaluate the 

effect of alinement by comparing the Clinch River results with those from the Powell and from the two 

reaches of Copper Creek. (See fig. 1 for locations of 

reaches.) In multiple tests on the same reach, the channel geometry would be unchanged for all practical purposes; therefore, the effect of depth and discharge could 

be evaluated.

For each test reach, horizontal and vertical control 

was established and a topographic map of the low-water 

channel was prepared. A sketch of each of the study 

reaches is included in the section, "Supplementary 

data". Six representative cross sections were chosen in 

each reach. Where multiple tests were made in the same 

reach, great care was exercised to use the same sections.

The tracer was injected in a line source across the 

stream either by wading or from a boat. An instantaneous plane source would be required in order to directly 

compare the experimental results with the theoretical 

models. Fortunately, vertical mixing occurs very rapidly 

and a line source was a satisfactory approximation of a 

plane source. (In all tests the width-depth ratio was 

large.)

About 15 milliliters of the tracer, a highly concentrated solution of gold chloride in nitric and hydrochloric acid, was diluted to a volume of 2 liters using 

water from the stream to minimize the difference in 

specific gravity between the tracer and the stream. The 

injection was started several feet from one bank and 

stopped short of the opposite bank, to minimize the 

contamination of the banks by the injected solution. 

The injection was made at a uniform rate over a 1- 

minute period. The concentration of radionuclide used 

in each test was proportional to the discharge (about 2 

millicuries per cubic foot per second). The resulting

concentrations of activity dropped rapidly to a level 

below that specified as the maximum permissible concentration in unrestricted areas (see Code of Federal 

Regulations, title 10, part 20, paragraph 20.106 and 

appendix B, table II, column 2), but were sufficiently 

high to be easily detected at all cross sections within 

the reach.

SELECTION OF A RADIOTRACER

The principal advantages of radioisotopes as tracers 

are the ease of detection, the large range of concentrations that can be observed, and the high order of 

resolution by radiation detecting equipment. A gammaemitting isotope is preferred in field studies because of 

the greater ease of detection. Gamma scintillation techniques are highly perfected and permit the sensing of 

activity from a large body of water. Measurement in 

situ is highly advantageous in many open-channel 

tracer problems because the detailed dispersal pattern 

is unknown. A program of grab sampling would yield 

adequate results only if the time of travel of the labeled 

water were accurately known for proper timing of 

sample collection at the several measuring sites.

Radiation safety plays an important role in the selection of a radiotracer. Radionuclides that are retained by 

organisms for long periods were not considered for use. 

The radioactivity of the isotope should reduce rapidly 

to very low levels upon completion of the experimental 

program. A short half life also permits additional testing 

in the same location within a reasonable time. However,
STREAM DISPERSION AT SELECTED SITES K5

the half life must be long enough to transport the 

isotope to the test site and complete the experiment.

Because the isotope is to be injected into a stream, it 

must be in a water-soluble form. In addition, the amount 

sorbed by the bed material and the biota should be a 

minimum. The final considerations are availability and 

cost. Gold-198 was chosen because of the high permissible concentrations, short half life, and low cost.

RADIATION DETECTION EQUIPMENT

The concentrations of activity in the stream were 

observed by a scintillation detector with a 1- by 1-inch 

sodium iodide thallium-activated crystal. A commercially available detector was adapted for use in the field 

by transistorizing the preamplifier and using a 100-foot 

lead. The probe assembly (crystal, photomultiplier tube, 

and preamplifier) were housed in a waterproof case (fig. 2).

The probe was attached to a battery-operated fivedecade sealer. The resolving time for the entire system 

was tested by the two-source method (Price, 1958) and 

found to be 50 microseconds. The error due to the 

resolving time is about 5 percent at 60,000 counts per 

minute and 10 percent at 110,000 counts per minute.

The concentrations were measured at or near the 

centerline of the stream. Each cross section was provided with a probe and sealer. The six sets of equipment 

were identical. In testing the relative counting rates 

versus the high-voltage setting, minor differences were 

found in the optimum high-voltage setting for each set. 

Thus each set was used and calibrated as a unit. In the 

end no sensible differences were found in the calibrations. However, probes and sealers were not interchanged without checking the calibration. Sealers 

were operated for 15, 30, 60, or 180 seconds for each 

observation of concentration.

At upstream stations, the concentration changed 

rapidly as the tracer cloud passed the observation point, 

and measurements were made at frequent intervals to 

define the time-concentration curve. The concentrations 

were high, and a short counting period yielded results 

that were statistically reliable. As the tracer cloud 

progressed downstream, concentrations were lower, and 

longer though less frequent counting periods were used 

to maintain statistical accuracy of the concentration 

measurements.

One of three methods was used to stabilize the probe's 

position in the stream:

1. The probe was clamped to a metal rod driven into 

the bed of the stream. This rod extended several 

feet above the water surface and was attached to 

a taut cable spanning the stream.

2. The probe was placed in a frame which in turn was 

clamped over an inflated automobile inner tube. 

The float was again stayed by a cable.

3. The probe was suspended from a boom extending 

over the prow of a small boat which was fastened 

to a cable.

In all tests the probe was submerged at a predetermined distance below the water surface.

CALIBRATION OF EQUIPMENT

The initial calibration of the radiation detection 

equipment was made in a tank with a diameter of 5 feet 

and a water depth of about 5 feet. The large-dimension 

tank minimized effects of geometry on the calibration. 

(See Frederick and Godfrey, 1961.) The probe-mounted 

crystal for each set of equipment was placed in its 

operating position 6 inches below the water surface in 

the tank. The concentrations of radioactivity selected 

for calibration varied from 0.01 to 25.0 microcuries 

per cubic foot. Several samples of calibration mixtures 

were assayed at the National Bureau of Standards, 

Washington, D.C., or at Abbott Laboratories, Oak 

Ridge, Tenn.

This method of calibration was used to determine 

the concentration of injection solution for each test.

ANALYSIS OF DATA

In view of the mathematical models developed earlier, the most significant parameter describing dispersion is the dispersion coefficient,

K=-e

where K is in square feet per second, ax is in feet and t 

is in seconds.

Field observations of the variation of concentration 

C(x, t), in microcuries per cubic foot with distance in 

feet at time t are more difficult to obtain than observations of the variation of concentration with time at a 

section located some distance x downstream from the 

injection section. Therefore, it was assumed that

where

cloud to move a distance x, and

in seconds.

This assumption is only valid if K/xV is small (Godfrey, 

1961), as was so for these experiments.

FIGURE 3. Time-concentration curves for test 10 on the Clinch River at Speers Ferry, Va.

A typical set of time-concentration observations is 

shown in figure 3. In this test the depths of flow were 

sufficient to minimize the effect of variations in geometry from section to section on detection of the tracer. 

Notice the continual decrease in concentration and the 

increase in time between the rising and falling limbs 

of the curves as the tracer moves downstream.

The base data obtained in the 11 tests are presented 

in tables 5-15. (See "Supplementary data".)

The method of moments was used to determine the 

mean time or centroid of the time-concentration distribution, t. To obtain <r t from the skewed time-concentration curves, the following procedure was used.

The time-concentration curve was assumed to be 

suitably described by a Pearson type III distribution 

with a skew coefficient a3 . To obtain the skew coefficient, 

the times Xi and X2 , in seconds, defined in figure 4, were 

determined for four concentrations of each time-concentration curve. These concentrations were 0.25, 0.50, 

about 0.61, and 0.75 of the maximum concentration

(7max . Using the ratio X2/Xt for the observed data, an 

estimated skew coefficient at each of the four concentration levels (7/(7max was determined from table 2; the 

mean of these four figures was a3 for a data set. Using 

this estimate of <x3 , the number of standard deviations 

between rising and falling limbs at the various levels 

x for a Pearson type III distribution was ob-
K8 TRANSPORT OF RADIONUCLIDES BY STREAMS

tained (table 3). An estimated standard deviation 

at the four levels was obtained by dividing the time 

span between rising and falling limbs of the curve 

(Xi+X2) for each level by the number of standard 

deviations at that level. The mean of these four estimates was <r t for the data set.

The mean time t and the standard deviation a t are 

determined solely by the shape of the time-concentration curve, not by the absolute value of the ordinates. 

Thus, the effect of varied geometry, errors in calibration, and loss of isotope do not affect the computation 

of these statistical parameters.

An alternate estimate of K can be made assuming 

that equation 2 is an adequate representation of the 

time-concentration distribution; if x is sufficiently 

large and K/Vx is small,

C ^ma - M

where Cm&x= maximum concentration at observation

section, in curies per cubic foot, 

M = curies of radiotracer injected, and 

A= cross-sectional area for uniform flow, in

square feet, 

and by rearranging the terms

(6)

Because the measurement of M is subject to assay 

errors and Cmax is affected by the geometry of the 

measuring section, the ratio of M/Cm&]i in equation 6 

is replaced by the ratio M'/Cm&x where

C(x, t)dt, 

and

Q=discharge, in cubic feet per second, thereby, 

tending to balance measurement errors in the two 

terms of the ratio. Another measure of area is defined 

to replace A in equation 6:

V
STREAM DISPERSION AT SELECTED SITES K9

the average cross-sectional area between the injection 

and observation sections, in square feet. (The area 

A listed in tables 5B-15B in "Supplementary data'' 

is that measured at each test section.) Hence, an overall 

estimate of K for a test reach can be determined by 

the following adaptation of equation 6:

=-- , in feet>

or by

T/2Ki=<rx, in feet.

In figure 5 the relations of ax and 7 to -\t are shown 

for tests 8 and 9. The slope of the straight line, whose 

position is the result of equal weighting of the points 

related to ax and 7, is . Plots such as figure 5 for 

data from all tests showed a straight line relation between [<rx,y] and 1 for long times after the tracer injection. Estimates of K for all tests are given in table 4. 

In all these plots the intercept of the straight line was 

less than zero. The rapid changes expected in K for 

short periods after tracer injection were evidenced 

only in tests 8 and 9. (See fig. 5.)

1 Adjusted for change in stage between times of discharge measurement and test.

2 Mean width, 6, and mean depth, d, for test reach based on linear weighting of measured width and mean depth d at observation section.

The observed dispersion coefficients are compared 

to Taylor's model

adapted for open-channel flow, in table 4. The shear 

velocity, V^^^/gRS, listed in tables 5B-15B in "Supplementary data", is not a precise value because R varied 

from section to section.

Other variables listed in table 4 and combinations of 

these variables were examined for their relationship 

with K; no relationships applicable to all test data 

were found.

CONCLUSIONS

Analysis of the data shows some interesting features 

for turbulent dispersion in streams. First, <rxz, or 7, 

increases linearly with time for long periods after 

tracer injection and, as Taylor had predicted, the dispersion coefficient becomes constant. Second, the 

straight line relation between -\2Kt and -\t does not 

pass through the origin, however, tests 8 and 9 indicate 

that K decreases rapidly near the injection section, 

again confirming Taylor's concepts of the turbulent 

dispersion process. Third, there is a considerable discrepancy between magnitudes of observed and theoretical (Taylor's) dispersion coefficients.
K10 TRANSPORT OF RADIONUCLIDES BY STREAMS

As previously mentioned, the velocity gradients in 

the transverse direction and in the vertical direction 

may tend to produce large dispersion coefficients. A 

second factor influencing the magnitude of the coefficient is nonuniformity of the channel characteristics of 

the reach. For instance, slightly better agreement 

in magnitude of coefficients is suggested for straight 

reaches than for curved reaches.

Experimental techniques may influence test results, 

but to a lesser degree, probably, than do convective 

effects. In the conduct of the tests a line source was 

used. The tracer was injected into the stream at a depth 

of about 6 inches. The injection was started a short 

distance from one bank and stopped a similar distance 

from the opposite bank. Thus, the steep velocity gradients near the banks and bed did not play their full role 

until the tracer cloud had migrated to the boundary.

Consideration should be given to the use of equation 2 

as a model to compute the dispersion pattern of a 

containment. (7max is inversely proportional to ^K. 

The standard deviation of the dispersed cloud is proportional to ^K. Thus, even though it may not be 

possible to know K within 25-fold, the error in the 

maximum concentration and standard deviation is only 

fivefold. Because the theory gives low values of K the 

predicted value of the maximum concentration would 

be too high and the predicted length of the cloud of 

dispersed material would be too short, in comparison 

with the field observations.

The magnitude of the discrepancies between observed 

and theoretical dispersion coefficients suggests that onedimensional models are too limited to describe dispersion in natural streams. Further, the results of the 

investigation strongly indicate that experimental data 

on velocity distribution, such as are given in the section 

entitled, "Supplementary data," be used for evaluating 

convective effects on the dispersion coefficient.
