Abstract |
SHORTZ utilizes the steady state bivariate Gaussian plume formulation for both urban and rural areas in flat or complex terrain to calculate ground-level ambient air concentrations. The model can calculate 1-hour, 2-hour, 3-hour, etc., average concentrations due to emissions from stacks, buildings and area sources for up to 300 arbitrarily placed sources. The output consists of total concentration at each receptor due to emissions from each user-specified source or group of sources, including all sources. If the option for gravitational settling is invoked, analysis cannot be accomplished in complex terrain without violatiing mass continuity. |
Supplementary Notes |
Language: FORTRAN. Ready for uploading to an IBM model 3090 computer. This cannot be used on a PC since the program requires random-access mass storage capability. |
Availability Notes |
The datafile is on two 3 1/2 inch DOS diskettes, 1.44M high density. |
