Personal Computer Program for Chemical Hazard Prediction (D2PC)

Abstract

A computer program which estimates the downwind hazard from release of a toxic chemical is documented. Hazard assessment is made in terms of accumulated dosage or peak concentration resulting from instantaneous, continuous, or varying release. Options include evaporation from a spill and the rise from a heated source from a stack or ground fire. The program is written in FORTRAN 77, is conversational for CRT display, and has been run on the UNIVAC 1100/60 and the IBM compatible PC. Keywords: Hazardous materials, Chemical hazard, Cloud diffusion, D2, Liquid evaporation.
