This paper deals with numerical approach to modeling of atmospheric dispersion of
pollutant caused by a point source. The modeling of a pollution in the atmosphere
has a long history and has gone throw great improvements over the last century.
Two main methods can be distinguished from the modeling point of view: the
analytical and the numerical methods. Both methods have their advantages and
disadvantages, however, in the latest developments the numerical method has had
the major role. Our work has been concerned on modeling pollution in the
atmosphere caused by small sources. These sources can be marked as point sources.
For the primary validation of our numerical solution, we have used a simple
version of the model. The analytical solution of this version can be obtained and
may be used for comparison. An intended progress of our work is outlined at the
end of the paper.
