Emissions Model for Ground Support Equipment: User's Guide

Abstract

This report describes how to change Ground Support Equipment (GSE) input parameters of the Emission and Dispersion Model System (EDMS) (Segal, H.M. ) to reflect what if investigations associated with GSE equipment changes. EDMS is a pc-based air quality impact assessment tool for airports and airbases. The GSE extension adds the capability to estimate, inventory, and report emissions from diesel and gas-powered support equipment, such as generators, fuel trucks, air conditioners, and bomb lifts. This user's guide provides a brief overview of GSE hardware and operations. It also demonstrates how to use GSE options by guiding the reader through a sample problem which adds a new GSE source to the list of GSE's and links the new GSE source to a specific aircraft.
