A Microcomputer Pollution Model for Civilian Airports and Air Force Bases.
Abstract
Over the past five years, the Federal Aviation Administration and the United States Air Force have developed a number of user-friendly emissions and dispersion models for air quality assessment purposes. The first, Simplex A was completed in July 1981. The second, called Emissions and Dispersion Modeling System (EDMS), has just been completed and this report constitutes its User's Guide. First, this User's Guide shows how the EDMS system evolved from the earlier, more complex AVAP and AQAM systems. Then, it identifies the hardware and software required to run the system and provides instructions on how to add, delete or change standard information. Finally, through a 125-step example problem, it instructs the user on how to input and process data to produce: (1) an emissions inventory of all sources at an airport/airbase, and (2) an estimate of the concentrations of these sources at specified locations. An inexperienced user should be able to process the example problem in less than three hours. Keywords: Menu flow; and Flow charting. (Author)
