A diffusion-model-based generalizing method for estimating
the dispersion of mass in inhomogeneous convective flows
is considered. An admissible class of exact solutions,
a comparison with which allows one to establish the dispersion
coefficient and the error of application of the model in each
specific case, has been determined.
