3.4

Table of Contents The table of contents should list all material following it as well as any
material which precedes it. The title page and Bonafide Certificate will not find a place
among the items listed in the Table of Contents but the page numbers of which are in lower
case Roman letters. One and a half spacing should be adopted for typing the matter under this
head. A specimen copy of the Table of Contents of the project report is given in Appendix 3.

3.5

List of Tables The list should use exactly the same captions as they appear above the tables
in the text. One and a half spacing should be adopted for typing the matter under this head.

3.6

List of Figures The list should use exactly the same captions as they appear below the
figures in the text. One and a half spacing should be adopted for typing the matter under this
head.

3.7

List of Symbols, Abbreviations and Nomenclature One and a half spacing should be
adopted for typing the matter under this head. Standard symbols, abbreviations etc. should be
used.

4.0 ORGANISATION OF THE TEXT

One and a half spacing should be used for typing the general text. The general text shall be
typed in the Font style Times New Roman and Font size 14.The body of the text should be
justified. The Titles should be left justified with proper numbering. (1.1,1.2in chapter 1).
When referring to a chapter or an appendix, section etc., these should always begin with
capital letter.
For example
as shown in Chapter III.
as shown in Table 1 and Figure 2.
as shown in Appendix A
4.1 Main Text
The main text will be divided into several chapters and each chapter may be further divided into several divisions and sub-divisions. The text should be
proof read for spelling and grammar. If more than ten mistakes are found out, then the thesis is rejected.

4.2 Chapters
Use upper case for chapter number and chapter title. Chapters must always begin on a new page.

4.3 Section and sub-sections

The section number should follow the chapter number, in Arabic numerals. The section heading
should be capitalized. Small connecting words like and or should be in lower case. There may
be multiple sections in a chapter but cannot have just only one section.
4.4 Pagination
Use Arabic numerals and place the numbers at the centre of the footer. The page number on the first
page of the text should be suppressed. Dont allow the last line of a paragraph to appear alone on the
top of the following page. Dont allow the first line of the paragraph to appear alone at the bottom of
the page. If they appear insert page break where necessary to control the spacing of paragraphs, or
alter the text.
4.5 Figures
All other non-verbal materials used in the body of the project work and appendices such as charts,
graphs, maps, photographs and diagrams may be designated as figures. Figures by themselves do not
convey any information to the reader. Do not assume that the reader will automatically understand
the figure provided at the appropriate place. All figures should be called out in the text using figure
number. The figure called out should appear at the first possible place after it has been called out. If
more than one figure is called out in the same page, then the figure should follow sequentially. It is
recommended that there be only one figure per page unless two can fit neatly and not appear
crowded. The figure should be centered in the page, captioned at the bottom, left justified and
employ sentence case.
Figures which have been obtained from other sources must be citied in the option with a bracketed
citation [1]. For figures containing graphs, make sure that each axis is fully labeled with proper
symbols and units. In general experimental data is best displayed using a scatter plots without
connecting the points. Fitted curves should be clearly labeled. If more than one curve is included in a
figure, then it should be properly labeled.
4.6 Tables
By the word Table, is meant tabulated numerical data in the body of the project report as well as in
the appendices. The purpose of providing tables in the text is to enable an organized presentation of
numerical data. The tables by themselves do not convey anything. Do not assume that the reader will
automatically read and interpret. All tables should be called out in the text. The table called out
should then appear at the first possible place after it has been called out. All tables should be
numbered sequentially using Arabic numerals continuously throughout the text. Table captions
should be left justified and be of sentence case. The caption goes above the table. Reference to tables
in the text should be by table number and not by page number. The title of the table should be

descriptive of the contents of the table. Titles such as experimental results, temperature
measurements and other non-descriptive generic titles should not be used. Tables should have rows
and columns. Each row and column should have a title describing the contents of the row or column.
The units of the numbers contained in the table should be shown clearly. If each column has a
separate measure, then the unit has to be specified with the column titles. If the whole table has only
one unit, then this can be specified either at the top of the table or along with the title. The
measurement errors should also be included in the table wherever needed.
4.7 Equations
All equations are to be sequentially numbered continuously beginning with numbers within the
section. Equation label and number should be inserted on the same line that the equation begins. For
Example Equation 1.1, 1.2 etc., if equations are used in section 1, equation 5.1, 5.2 etc., if equations
are used in section 5 respectively. The equation should be set off from the text and should be
centered. All variables should be defined in the text.
4.8 References
A reference is to let the reader know where the information had been obtained. The purpose of
providing references is to ensure the interested reader to locate that particular reference and to cite
the earlier contribution in the area. References are numbered sequentially, in order of appearance, at
the end of the text. The references should be referred to into the text by inserting them in rectangular
brackets [1, 2].
The listing of references should be typed 4 spaces below the heading REFERENCES in
alphabetical order in single spacing left justified. The reference material should be listed in the
alphabetical order of the first author. The name of the author/authors should be immediately
followed by the year and other details.
A typical illustrative list given below relates to the citation example quoted above.
1. Ulgen K and Hepbasli A. 2002. Comparison of solar radiation correlation for Izmir,
Turkey.International Journal of Energy Research 26: 413-430.
2. Wadha.C.L, 1999. Generation, distribution and utilization of electrical energy. New Age
International (P) Limited Publishers, New Delhi.
3. Wijeysundera N.E., Lee Lee Ah and Lim Ek Tjioe.1982. Thermal performance study of twopass solar air heaters. Journal of Solar energy 28(5)363-370.
Electronic References Use of electronic references should give the proper site.
Style: Author, Initials (year). Document title [online].Available at location of document (accessed
date)
4.9 Units

The units to be followed are SI units.

4.10 Footnotes
A footnote is a clarification or more detailed explanation of something in the text. Continuity of the
text should not be dependent on the footnote; it is provided purely as extra information for the
reader. Footnotes should appear at the bottom of the page in which they are referred to. Do not use
numbers for footnotes. Symbols such as * or + can be used as superscripts. The recommended
symbol is the * or #. If more than one footnote is called out in a page, then use one, two, three *s.
The impression on the typed copies should be black in color.

5.0 APPENDICES
Appendices are provided to give supplementary information, which if included in the main text may
serve as a distraction and cloud the central theme.

Appendices should be numbered using Arabic numerals, e.g. Appendix 1, Appendix

2, etc.

Appendices, Tables and References appearing in appendices should be numbered and

referred to at appropriate places just as in the case of chapters.

Appendices shall carry the title of the work reported and the same title shall be made in the
contents page also.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Boix et al (1995) used vectorial model to assess the influence of local breeze and
other meteorological parameters on the ground level concentrations of SO 2 and particulate
matters in the urban area of Castellon-Spain. They reported a decrease in the concentrations
of SO2 and particulate matters in winter months due to strong prevailing wind while
measured concentrations in summer were higher than recorded in winter months.
Seiber et al (1996) estimated flux values using ISCST3 model and compared with
CALPUFF for airborne methyl bromide downwind of a treated agricultural field. The
ISCST3 model, under predicted concentrations for 76% of data while the CALPUFF model
also under predicted 67% of observations.
Yates et al (1996) also estimated the flux values and observed that ISCST3 model
over-predicted concentrations by a factor of 2 for 67% of data and the CALPUFF overpredicted concentrations by a factor of 1.6 for over 50% of data.
Anh, et al (1998) present a generic reaction set (GRS) model which offers a
convenient framework for studying the photochemical smog production. The performance of
the model has been found comparable to more detailed photo chemical mechanisms such as
the CBM IV. The presentation also discusses about the GRS model expansion to include
spatial advection and diffusion in the airshed. The expanded model is implemented on a
simple grid of seven stations in the Sydney monitoring network. Comparison with observed
data indicates that the model performs quite well, in particular, it traces the ozone episodes
accurately.

Grosch, Thomas et al (1998), in their paper, describes the development of the

Advanced Shoreline Dispersion Model (ASDM) using the United States Environmental
Protection Agency's (EPA's) Industrial Source Complex Short-Term (ISCST3) Model, the
Shoreline Dispersion Model (SDM), and partial plume penetration algorithms from the
Offshore and Coastal Dispersion model (OCD). The development of ASDM was necessary
for use in permit/compliance and in-house evaluation programs for sources that are affected
by shoreline fumigation. Upon regulatory review of the first ASDM submittal, the EPA
requested that the effects of partial plume penetration be incorporated into ASDM using the
methodology of OCD. Additional refinements to the thermal internal boundary layer (TIBL)
algorithm were made based on wind tunnel modeling which resulted in the current release,
ASDM version 1.0.
McCourtney, Margaret et al (1998) have used the ISCST3 model to estimate the
24-hour and annual average concentrations of the selected pollutants throughout the
Minneapolis/St. Paul Metropolitan Area. The industrial point sources and dry cleaners were
modeled as point sources. All other sources were modeled as area sources with the emissions
assigned to zip codes. Three sets of receptors were developed: a 'fine' receptor grid with 500
meter spacing in the urban core, a 'coarse' receptor grid with 5000 meter spacing covering
the metropolitan area, and discrete receptors located 100 meters in each of four directions
around each point source.
