Title: Energy use in the Marine transportation industry. Volume V. Marine transportation energy model documentation. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6455137

Documentation is provided for the Marine Transportation Energy Model, which may be used to analyze the energy consumption and financial performance of the maritime industry. The information provides a description of the methodology used in the model, and provides assistance in exercising the model's computer software. The general nature of the model's calculations is described and the principal equations used in those calculations are presented. Program flow is summarized. Instructions are provided for preparation of the control cards which control program execution, and select processing options. Instructions are also provided concerning the optional override cards which permit the user to modify virtually any parameter used by the model. File structure and record formats for all input files are given, as well as a summary of output reports which may be selected. A listing of the program code is included. The appendix contains sample output reports which may be generated by the model.
