Title: TVENT; ventilation system transient analysis. [CDC7600; IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6383618

TVENT predicts flows and pressures in ventilation systems caused by pressure transients such as a tornado. A ventilation system model includes system elements (components such as filters, dampers, ducts, blowers) connected at nodal points to form networks. The program solves one-dimensional lumped parameter, incompressible flow equations augmented by fluid storage. The user can identify points of excessive depressurization and areas of high flow.CDC7600;IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV; NOS, LTSS, and SCOPE (CDC7600), OS/360 (IBM360); 53,000 (octal) words of memory.
