Figure 4.18, “Smkinven input and output files for area sources” shows the input and output files for Smkinven for area sources. If importing gridded data, Smkinven reads the AG file; for the annual inventory, Smkinven reads the ARINV file. The ARTOPNT file is used to assign point-source locations to area sources, and either the COSTCY or GEOCODE_LEVEL4 file is used to assign time zones to the annual inventory data. Smkinven also uses the inventory data table (INVTABLE), the optional NONHAP exclusions file (NHAPEXCLUDE), and the SCC description file (SCCDESC) if processing area-to-point sources.
Smkinven outputs an annual and average-day inventory emissions file (AREA), a file listing the inventory SCCs (ASCC), a log file (LOGFILE), and a report containing various information about the processed inventory (REPINVEN).
Figure 4.19, “Smkinven input and output files for mobile sources” shows the input and output files for Smkinven for mobile sources. The input files include the country, state and county codes file (COSTCY), the inventory data table (INVTABLE), the raw inventory file (MBINV), and the SCC reference input file (SCCXREF) created by Gen_8digit_scc.pl.
Smkinven outputs a log file (LOGFILE), an annual and average-day inventory emissions file (MOBL), a file listing the inventory SCCs (MSCC), and a report containing various information about the processed inventory (REPINVEN).
Figure 4.20, “Smkinven input and output files for point sources” shows the input and output files for Smkinven for point sources. The input files include the optional CEM summary file (CEMSUM) created by CEMScan, the country, state and county codes file (COSTCY), the inventory data table (INVTABLE), and the optional NONHAP exclusions file (NHAPEXCLUDE). If importing hour-specific data, the ORIS facility description file ORISDESC is used. The PSTK file provides replacement stack parameters. Day-specific data is read from the PTDAY file, while hour-specific data comes from the PTHOUR file; the PTINV file provides the raw inventory data. For hour-specific data, the SCC description file (SCCDESC) is also needed.
Smkinven outputs a log file (LOGFILE), and optional day-specific inventory (PDAY), and an optional hour-spceific inventory (PHOUR). The annual and average-day inventory emissions are stored in the PNTS file and the PSCC file lists the inventory SCCs. Finally, the REPINVEN report contains various information about the processed inventory.

-
USE_EXP_GEO_CODES: [default: N]If set to Y then use GEOCODE_LEVEL[1-4] files instead of the COSTCY file to define expanded geographical detail such as country-level(GEOCODE_LEVEL1), country/state-level (GEOCODE_LEVEL2), country/state/county-level (GEOCODE_LEVEL3) or country/state/county/tribal-level (GEOCODE_LEVEL4).
-
ALLOW_NEGATIVE: [default: N]Indicates if Smkinven should permit negative emissions values to be input from inventory files and output to
SMOKEintermediate files.-
Y: Accept negative emissions values and will allow compute variables (from the
SMKINVEN_FORMULAvariable) to be negative. Smkinven gives warnings for each negative value in the inventory input and each computed value, until triggering theSMK_MAXWARNINGsetting's values. -
N: Do not permit negative emissions values. Accept negative emissions values in the input inventory files, and will give errors for these. Smkinven will reset all negative computed values (from the
SMKINVEN_FORMULAvariable) to zero. Smkinven gives warnings for each negative computed value and indicates that the value was reset to zero.
-
-
CHECK_STACKS_YN: [default: Y]Indicates if stack parameter values should be checked for missing or out-of-range values; only checked if
SMK_SOURCEis set to P.-
Y: Check input stack parameters for missing or out-of-range values

Y: Import day-specific data
-
N: Do not import day-specific data

This option is useful when some sources have only annual data and some sources have only average-day data. Although the annual number will be filled in using the average-day one, the average-day emissions will be output from SMOKE as a whole.

FLOW_RATE_FACTOR(ft3/MMBTU) * hourly heat input (MMBTU/hr) * 0.02831 m3/ft3] / 3600 s/hr -
FULLSCC_ONLY: See description in Section 4.2.3.2, “Input Environment Variables”. In this context, this option affects cross-referencing for theARTOPNT, andNHAPEXCLUDEfiles by preventing left-7 SCC assignments. It also prevents left-2 and left-4 SCC assignments for NHAPEXCLUDE. -

SMK_TMPDIR: [default:.]Sets the path for writing temporary files needed when importing the inventory.
-
SMKINVEN_FORMULA: [default: blank]Allows the user to specify a formula for computing one or more pollutant values from the values of other pollutants. To use, users should set the value of
SMKINVEN_FORMULAto a double-quote-enclosed string of 512 characters or less, using a comma-delimited list of formulas. No spaces are necessary in the formula list. Only formulas of a specific structure are accepted. Specifically, one of the following:- OUTPUT = INPUT1 + INPUT2
- OUTPUT = INPUT1 - INPUT2
For example, if the formula is set to “PMC=PM10-PM2_5,EXH__PMC=EXH__PM10-EXH__PM2_5”, then Smkinven will compute two new variables: (1) PMC, as the difference between PM10 and PM2.5 and (2) EXH__PMC as the difference between exhaust PM10 and exhaust PM2.5. The pollutant units are taken from the first variable in each formula. The variables used as input in the formula will still be output to the SMOKE inventory file. If the formula is not set, no additional variables will be written to the SMOKE inventory file. An output from one formula may not be used as an input to another formula. In the OUTPUT pollutant name is the same as an INPUT pollutant name from the inventory file, Smkinven will give an error indicating that the second pollutant could not be written (e.g. if computing PMC when PMC is already in the raw inventory data). If INPUT2 is ommitted, an error will also occur. Formulas using multiplication and division are not yet implemented.
