1. NAME AND TITLE

DEPOSITION 1.03: Particle Penetration Through Aerosol Transport Lines.
 

2. CONTRIBUTORS

Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas through the Energy Science and Technology Software Center, Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
 

3. CODING LANGUAGE AND COMPUTER

TURBO BASIC; IBM PC (P00420IBMPC00).
 

4. NATURE OF PROBLEM SOLVED

DEPOSITION1.03 is an interactive software program which was developed for the design and analysis of aerosol transport lines. Models are presented for calculating aerosol particle penetration through straight tubes of arbitrary orientation, inlets, and elbows. An expression to calculate effective depositional velocities of particles on tube walls is derived. The concept of maximum penetration is introduced, which is the maximum possible penetration through a sampling line connecting any two points in a three-dimensional space. A procedure to predict optimum tube diameter for an existing transport line is developed. Note that there is a discrepancy in this package which includes the DEPOSITION 1.03 executable and the DEPOSITION 2.0 report. RSICC was unable to obtain other executables or reports.
 

5. METHOD OF SOLUTION

An interactive menu driven software system entitled DEPOSITION has been developed to perform above said tasks. This code can either be used on a PC or on a mainframe. The use and illustration of the software is described in Appendix A of the report.
 

6. RESTRICTIONS OR LIMITATIONS

None noted.
 

7. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

Program is interactive.
 

8. COMPUTER HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

IBM PS/2 or IBM PC. This code can be used on a PC.
 

9. COMPUTER SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

DEPOSITION is written in Turbo Basic. The source is NOT included. The included executable was tested at RSICC on a Pentium in a DOS window of Windows95.
