| Abstract |
The Fugitive Dust Model (FDM) is a computerized air quality model specifically designed for computing concentration and deposition impacts from fugitive dust sources. The sources may be point, line or area sources. The model has not been designed to compute the impacts of buoyant point sources, thus it contains no plume-rise algorithm. The model is generally based on the well-known Gaussian Plume formulation for computing concentrations, but the model has been specifically adapted to incorporate an improved gradient-transfer deposition algorithm. Emissions for each source are apportioned by the user into a series of particle size classes. A gravitational setting velocity and a deposition velocity are calculated by FDM for each class. Concentration and deposition are computed at all user selectable receptor locations...Software Description: The model is written in the Fortran programming language for implementation on an IBM PC compatible using the DOS operating system. |
| Supplementary Notes |
Computer: IBM/PC compatible. DOS operating system, 500K. Language: FORTRAN. The model may be adapted for operation on a mainframe or other computer system. The model requirements for PC operation are a minimum of 500K of memory and a math coprocessor-chip (e.g. 80287, etc.). An additional requirement is that the device driver, ANSI.SYS or a compatible be installed on the machine. |
| Availability Notes |
The software is contained on one 1.2M, 5 1/4-inch diskette, high density. File format: Multiple formats. Price includes documentation, PB90-215203. |
