What's new:
-
The Pueblo "Worst-Case Plume Prediction" tab has been updated
with the latest depot boundary map data as provided by IEM
in May 2017.
-
New scenarios were added to both the BGAD and PCD
"Worst-Case Plume Prediction" tabs. Additionally, some
of the existing scenario descriptions listed in the Scenario
dropdown menu were clarified and/or simplified. The newly
added scenarios cover a wider range of fire scenarios. For
PCD, the Worst-Case scenarios were re-run to account for
changes that have taken place since they were last input
into CHPConvert (with outputs that now factor in these
changes). The changes for the PCD scenarios include: 1) changes
in how the MCE scenarios are currently being modeled;
and 2) minor changes to the WebPuff dispersion model.
-
The "Worst-Case Plume Prediction" tabs have been updated
with the same map data for igloos, zones, the CLA, and
the depot boundary as is used in WebPuff 5.3.
-
In the "Wind Direction" tab, a 16-point compass
is now used.
-
On the "Calculate Ventilated Release Inputs" tab,
the "Agent/Munition Type" control now maintains its
setting (when possible) upon changes to the
"Source Type" control.
-
The ventilation rate in the "Calculate Source for
Inside Agent Reading" and the "Calculate Ventilated
Release Inputs" tabs have been modified. The modifications
include adjustments in values for consistency between
the two tabs. The associated notes on these tabs have
also been updated.
-
Agent concentration conversion tabs now include ppm.
-
The "Calculate Ventilated Release Inputs" tab now has a
button that resets all settings to their default values.
-
The "Advanced Options" dialog box (under "Options," then
"Application Options") now includes a check box labeled
"Application window initially maximized." This check box
controls whether the CHPConvert application window is in
the normal or maximized state when the program starts.
-
The "Calculate Puddle Dimensions" tab was renamed to "Calculate
Puddle Area" to reflect changes in WebPuff. Additionally, the
notes associated with this tab have been changed and a new button
was added that provides information on "Calculating Puddle Size for
M55 2&13 Pallet Scenarios."
-
The notes on the "Puddle Direction" tab were changed to reflect
changes in WebPuff.
-
The default font size on some of the reports that the user
generates has been increased; this includes the three reports that
can be generated in the "Calculate Ventilated Release Inputs" tab.
The font size for these reports can be changed by the user on the
"Advanced Options" dialog box (under "Options," then "Application
Options").

The CHPConvert utility has been configured two ways. One configuration has the default settings and tabs for PCD and the other configuration has the default settings and tabs for BGCA. Both configurations include all of the same capabilities and data, but we suggest that you download the installation file that has been configured for your site. NOTE: You will need to enter in the same Username/Password combination that you use for the Short Topics - if you need this information contact DETech.
