Figure 6.14, “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 the COSTCY
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 6.15, “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 mobile codes file (MCODES
). The NONHAP exclusions file (NHAPEXCLUDE
) is optional as is the VMTMIX
file.
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 6.16, “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. For EMS-95 formatted inputs, an optional temporal profiles file (PTREF_ALT
) is output. Finally, the REPINVEN
report contains various information about the processed inventory.

CHECK_STACKS_YN
: [default: Y]
Indicates if stack parameter values should be checked for missing or out-of-range values; only checked if SMK_SOURCE
is set to P.
Y: Check input stack parameters for missing or out-of-range values
N: Do not check input stack parameter values
DAY_SPECIFIC_YN
: [default: N]
Defines whether to import day-specific inventory data.
Y: Import day-specific data
N: Do not import day-specific data
FILL_ANNUAL
: [default N]
Allows annual data to be filled in with average-day data.
Y: Use “Y” when annual emission numbers are blank for some records of the inventory but not all records. The emissions values will
be filled in using the average-day emissions field, by multiplying the average-day number by the number of days in the inventory
year (365 or 366). 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. Note that SMK_AVEDAY_YN
should be set to N in other SMOKE programs when this option has been selected.
N: Do not fill in annual data based on average-day emissions values.
FLOW_RATE_FACTOR
: [default: 15875 ft3/MMBTU]
Used to calculate hourly flow rates from hourly heat input when reading CEM data. If FLOW_RATE_FACTOR
is set to zero or unset, then Smkinven will not calculate hourly flow rates. TDetail information is described in Section 2.9.19, “Processing hour-specific CEM data”
hourly flow rate (m3/s) = [FLOW_RATE_FACTOR
(ft3/MMBTU) * hourly heat input (MMBTU/hr) * 0.02831 m3/ft3] / 3600 s/hr
FULLSCC_ONLY
: See description in Section 6.2.3.2, “Input Environment Variables”. In this context, this option affects cross-referencing for the ARTOPNT
, NHAPEXCLUDE
, and VMTMIX
files by preventing left-7 SCC assignments. It also prevents left-2 and left-4 SCC assignments for NHAPEXCLUDE.
HOUR_SPECIFIC_YN
: [default: N]
Defines whether to import hour-specific inventory data.
Y: Import hour-specific data
N: Do not import hour-specific data
HOURLY_TO_DAILY
: [default: N]
Defines whether to treat the hour-specific inputs as day-specific data.
Y: Use daily-total column only from hour-specific input file, and process as day-specific data. This setting does not work for input of hour-specific data using CEM format.
N: Treat hourly file as hourly data
HOURLY_TO_PROFILE
: [default: N]
Defines whether to treat the hour-specific inputs as hour-specific temporal profiles.
Y: Treat hourly data as temporal profile, and divide each hourly value by value in the daily total column of the file. The values are not renormalized. The resulting hour-specific output file will be recognized by the Temporal program as containing hourly profiles. This setting does not work for input of hour-specific data using CEM format.
N: Treat hourly file as hourly data
IMPORT_AVEINV_YN
: [default: Y]
Defines whether to import the annual and average-day inventory data. This is set to N to import day-specific or hour-specific data after Smkinven has previously been run for the annual and average-day data.
Y: Import annual and average-day inventory data from PTINV
file
N: Use SMOKE inventory files from a previous run of Smkinven to get the SMOKE source characteristics to match with the day-specific and hour-specific sources
IMPORT_GRDIOAPI_YN
: [default: N]
Defines whether the program will import a gridded I/O API NetCDF inventory file. This setting can be used only with area-source processing, and it overrides all other program settings for importing data (e.g., day- and hour-specific data import will be shut off).
Y: Import gridded I/O API data
N: Do not import gridded I/O API data
IMPORT_VMTMIX_YN
: [default: N]
Indicates whether VMT mix data should be imported.
Y: Import VMTMIX
file; required if using EMS-95 mobile format
N: Do not import VMT mix data
INVNAME1
: [default: none]
Sets root for naming output map inventory file
INVNAME2
: [default: none]
Sets root for naming output ASCII inventory file
RAW_DUP_CHECK
: [default: N]
Defines whether the program checks for duplicate records in the input file.
Y: Check for duplicates, and produce a fatal error if found
N: Do not check for duplicates, and add emissions from duplicate records
SMK_ARTOPNT_YN
: [default: N]
Y: Assign X and Y coordinates to specified sources based on the ARTOPNT
cross-reference file
N: Do not perform area-to-point processing
SMK_BASEYR_OVERRIDE
: [default: 0]
Used to override the base year determined by the inventory.
SMK_DEFAULT_TZONE
: [default: 5]
Defines the default time zone to use for sources that do not match entries in the COSTCY
file.
SMK_EMS95_FIXFMT
: [default: N]
Indicates whether mobile EMS-95 inventory is fixed format (column-specific) or free format (delimited list).
Y: Mobile EMS-95 inventory is fixed format
N: Mobile EMS-95 inventory is free format
SMK_MAXERROR
: [default: 100]
Defines the maximum number of ERROR statements to be displayed by SMOKE.
SMK_MAXWARNING
: [default: 100]
Defines the maximum number of WARNING statements to be displayed by SMOKE.
SMK_NHAPEXCLUDE_YN
: [default: N]
Y: Read NHAPEXCLUDE
cross-reference file and do not integrate the specified sources. See also Section 2.9.5, “Combine toxics and criteria inventories” for a description of criteria/HAP VOC integration. For all sources that will not be integrated, Smkinven will automatically create additional pollutants in the intermediate inventory file output by the program, based on input
HAP pollutants that meet the following conditions in the Inventory Table (INVTABLE
) file:
A "Y" appears in the "Keep" field (of the Inventory Table)
A "V" or "T" appears in the "VOC or TOG component" field
A "Y" appears in the "Model species" field
Something other than "Y" appears in the "Explicit in mechanism" field (e.g., "N" or blank)
The purpose of this operation is described in Section 2.9.5.1.4, “Toxics-CB4, no-integrate”
N: Integrate all sources if a toxics inventory has been read
SMK_SOURCE
: See description in Section 6.2.3.2, “Input Environment Variables”
SMK_TMPDIR
: [default: .
]
Sets the path for writing temporary files needed when importing the inventory.
SMKINVEN_FORMULA
: [default: blank]
Allows you 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_FORMULA
to 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:
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.
VELOC_RECALC
: [default: N]
Defines whether stack velocity is recalculated in order to make the velocity consistent with the reported flow and diameter.
Y: Recalculate stack velocity
N: Output the input stack velocity
WEST_HSPHERE
: [default: Y]
Defines how spatial coordinates are interpreted.
Y: Convert longitudinal coordinates for the Western Hemisphere (positive values are converted to negative values)
N: Do not convert longitude values (positive values are not changed)
WKDAY_NORMALIZE
: [default: Y for EMS-95 input format, N for all other formats]
Clarifies the nature of the “average-day” data read in by Smkinven and will impact the Temporal program processing of EMS-95 formatted data of type “AD” and average-day data for all other formats.
Y: Average-day emissions input to Smkinven are based on weekday emissions only. In Temporal, these emissions will be adjusted with weekly profiles normalized with weekdays only (Monday through Friday)
N: Average-day emissions input to Smkinven are based on all days of the week. In Temporal, these emissions will be adjusted with weekly profiles normalized with all days of the week.
WRITE_ANN_ZERO
: [default: N]
Indicates if annual emission values equal to zero should be written to the intermediate inventory file
Y: Write zero emission values; this option makes the intermediate inventory file larger but is sometimes necessary when only daily or hourly data is provided and the entries in the annual inventory are dummy values
N: Do not write zero values
