From page 123...
... D-1 Appendix D EDMS Model ing of Airside Operat ions D.1 . In t roduct ion EDMSD1,D2 is a combined emissions and dispersion model for assessing air quality at airports.
From page 124...
... D-2 • CO2 (carbon dioxide) for aircraft only, • CO (carbon monoxide)
From page 125...
... D-3 through input dialogs for all aircraft or for each study aircraft. Within EDMS, a study aircraft refers to a specific group of aircraft operations performed by a single aircraft-engine combination.
From page 126...
... D-4 EDMS can calculate hourly emissions, and generate AERMOD input files for the following pollutants: • CO (carbon monoxide) , • THC (total hydrocarbons)
From page 127...
... D-5 An emissions inventory must first be generated before dispersion can be performed, since the set of emissions that are dispersed is the same as that produced from the annual inventory. More details on algorithms implemented in EDMS can be found in Reference D2.
From page 128...
... D-6 that the user only sees the final results (emissions)
From page 129...
... D-7 processing by the taxi-in server, arriving aircraft are delayed for a service time (τ) and released into the reservoir (R)
From page 130...
... D-8 • Detailed airport layout (gates, taxiways, runways, etc.) • A set of taxi paths1 connecting gates to runways and runway exits to gates • Airport configurations • Hourly weather • Location of receptors Each operation (departure or arrival)
From page 131...
... D-9 D.8 . References D.1.
From page 132...
... D-10 D.16. Long, D., Lee, D., Johnson, J., Gaier, E., and Kostiuk, P., Modeling Air Traffic Management Technologies With a Queuing Network Model of the National Airspace System, NASA/CR-1999208988, Logistics Management Institute, McLean, Virginia, 1999.
