Section 9: CALPUFF 9.3 Point Source Emissions File With Arbitrarily Varying Emissions (PTEMARB.DAT) The PTEMARB.DAT file contains point source emissions data for sources with detailed, arbitrarily varying emissions parameters. In the PTEMARB.DAT file, values for the stack parameters and emission rates can be specified for each time step in the run. Plume rise is computed within the CALPUFF model for each source. PTEMARB.DAT is a free-formatted ASCII data file (see Table 9-16 for an example). Multiple files may be provided if groups of sources possess very different time-variability. For example, group 1 may require hourly data records for the entire simulation period, while group 2 may produce emissions for only a few weeks during the simulation. Using a second file for group 2 is more economical to prepare because a single data record can be used to prescribe a long period with no (or constant) emissions. Each such file must cover the entire modeling period, no source may appear in more than one file, and the species list must be identical among these files. The data in the PTEMARB.DAT file are independent of the horizontal and vertical grid systems being used in the model. The horizontal coordinates are specified for a particular map projection and datum, and CALPUFF converts these coordinates to the map projection and datum used in the modeling grid. Header records of the PTEMARB.DAT file (see Table 9-17) contain the coordinate definitions, number of sources, starting and ending time periods of data in the file, the time zone, and a list of the emitted species and the corresponding molecular weights. The PTEMARB.DAT file contains two types of data records. A set of time-invariant records (see Table 9-18) are read after the header records. These records specify the time-invariant source parameters, including the source coordinates, stack height, diameter, momentum flux factor, and building data for sources subject to building downwash. The vertical momentum flux factor may be either 1.0 (full vertical momentum flux), or 0.0 (no vertical momentum). Use 0.0 to simulate the effect of stack structures like rain hats. A set of time-varying data follows (see Table 9-19). The time-varying records contain the stack temperature, exit velocity, initial plume size ( y and z ), and emission rate for each species. 9-163

9.3 Point Source Emissions File With Arbitrarily Varying Emissions (PTEMARB.DAT)<br />
<strong>The</strong> PTEMARB.DAT file contains point source emissions d<strong>at</strong>a for sources with detailed, arbitrarily<br />
varying emissions parameters. In the PTEMARB.DAT file, values for the stack parameters and emission<br />
r<strong>at</strong>es can be specified for each time step in the run. Plume rise is computed within the CALPUFF model<br />
for each source.<br />
PTEMARB.DAT is a free-form<strong>at</strong>ted ASCII d<strong>at</strong>a file (see <strong>Table</strong> 9-16 for an example). Multiple files may<br />
be provided if groups <strong>of</strong> sources possess very different time-variability. For example, group 1 may<br />
require hourly d<strong>at</strong>a records for the entire simul<strong>at</strong>ion period, while group 2 may produce emissions for<br />
only a few weeks during the simul<strong>at</strong>ion. Using a second file for group 2 is more economical to prepare<br />
because a single d<strong>at</strong>a record can be used to prescribe a long period with no (or constant) emissions. Each<br />
such file must cover the entire modeling period, no source may appear in more than one file, and the<br />
species list must be identical among these files.<br />
<strong>The</strong> d<strong>at</strong>a in the PTEMARB.DAT file are independent <strong>of</strong> the horizontal and vertical grid systems being<br />
used in the model. <strong>The</strong> horizontal coordin<strong>at</strong>es are specified for a particular map projection and d<strong>at</strong>um,<br />
and CALPUFF converts these coordin<strong>at</strong>es to the map projection and d<strong>at</strong>um used in the modeling grid.<br />
Header records <strong>of</strong> the PTEMARB.DAT file (see <strong>Table</strong> 9-17) contain the coordin<strong>at</strong>e definitions, number<br />
<strong>of</strong> sources, starting and ending time periods <strong>of</strong> d<strong>at</strong>a in the file, the time zone, and a list <strong>of</strong> the emitted<br />
species and the corresponding molecular weights.<br />
<strong>The</strong> PTEMARB.DAT file contains two types <strong>of</strong> d<strong>at</strong>a records. A set <strong>of</strong> time-invariant records (see <strong>Table</strong><br />
9-18) are read after the header records. <strong>The</strong>se records specify the time-invariant source parameters,<br />
including the source coordin<strong>at</strong>es, stack height, diameter, momentum flux factor, and building d<strong>at</strong>a for<br />
sources subject to building downwash. <strong>The</strong> vertical momentum flux factor may be either 1.0 (full vertical<br />
momentum flux), or 0.0 (no vertical momentum). Use 0.0 to simul<strong>at</strong>e the effect <strong>of</strong> stack structures like<br />
rain h<strong>at</strong>s. A set <strong>of</strong> time-varying d<strong>at</strong>a follows (see <strong>Table</strong> 9-19). <strong>The</strong> time-varying records contain the<br />
stack temper<strong>at</strong>ure, exit velocity, initial plume size ( y and z ), and emission r<strong>at</strong>e for each species.<br />
