dc.description.abstract | This simulator should be viewed as a framework for assembling and
manipulating information about the economics, emissions, ambient
concentrations, and potential health impacts of different types and
configurations of electric power generating facilities. The framework is
probabilistic, and thus results in several measures of the range of
various consequences, in other words, a graphic display of the quality of
the various predictions. The current version of the model is to be
considered a testing version, as there are certain approximations
implicit in some of the manipulations, scaling procedures, and the data
base is incomplete in portions. As a result of additional fundings, the
data base should be at the state of the art by September 1979 and
additional refinements to various manipulations, in particular the
economic and dispersions, should be completed by June 1980. There are,
nevertheless, a tremendous number of useful exercises that can be
performed on the current model version. In addition, the simulator is
structured so that it is easy to improve the sophistication of certain
manipulations, or to replace generic data, or update or add new data.
Versions of the simulator are available so that it can be operated in
batch or interactive modes. | en |
