Section 9: CALPUFF BDOWN real Building downwash flag 0. = building downwash not modeled, 1. = building downwash modeled EMS real array Emission rate of each modeled species Note: "NSPEC" values must be entered - - Table 9-3 (Continued) CALPUFF Control File Inputs - Input Group 13 Point Source Parameters Variable Type Description Default Value (Optional Variables for Input Group 13b) SIGMAYI real Initial sigma-y (m) associated with the release from this source SIGMAZI real Initial sigma-z (m) associated with the release from this source FMFAC real is a vertical momentum flux factor (0. or 1.0) used to represent the effect of rain-caps or other physical configurations that reduce momentum rise associated with the actual exit velocity. FMFAC=1 is full momentum (no obstruction). 0.0 - 0.0 1.0 ZPLTFM real is the platform height (m) for sources influenced by an 0.0 isolated structure that has a significant open area between the surface and the bulk of the structure The variables in Input Group 13b are entered for each of the "NPT1" point sources. The data for each source is treated as a separate input subgroup, and therefore, must end with an input group terminator (i.e., !END!). Note that the source number is an optional user comment which is outside of the delimiter containing the required source data. The data for each source must follow an opening delimiter and "X=". The data for each source is followed by a closing delimiter and an input group terminator. The first two optional variables may be provided for point sources that have a characteristic distribution much like volume sources. The values are entered in order between delimiters, following “SIGYZI=”. The third optional variable is typically used for sources with rain-hats that eliminate the initial vertical momentum of the release. These records must be placed before the input group terminates (i.e., !END!) for the point source. 9-93
