Emission factor editing
Emissions for combustion related sources are taken by
the models from the emission data base; these values are either directly
entered with the respective soucre, or can be estimates from source specififc data on
- fuel type
- annual fuel consumption
together with the temporal emisison patterns
The Emission factors can be edited for a matrix that is defined by
- The set of fuel types the system uses, defined as a set of values for a Descriptor
fuel_type in the Knowledge Base; the user can add or delete fuel types as required;
- The set of pollutants considered is driven by the descriptor emission_pollutant,
and can be changed in the Knowledgebase:
- CO, CO2, NO, NOx, NO2, PM10, PM2.5, VOC.
The interactive editor uses the standard eiditing tools with
optional rule based expert system assistance.
The editor is generated dynamically, to provide all data fields for fuel types and pollutants needed
accorind to the current definition in the KnowledgeBase.
