Aerius Module test results

Case description

To compare the results of the Tygron Platform connection with the Aerius Calculator with the results from the Aerius Calculator, a fictional test case is conducted. The fictional test case is of a plan for an appartment complex in Scheveningen, near the lighthouse. For this plan the building phase and usage phase are calculated on NOX deposition on Natura2000 areas.

Parameter values and setup

The parameters below are fictional
Usage phase

Building related emissions for 69 appartments: 76,59 NOX
Increase in light traffic: 305,6562 traffic per day (in built-up area)
Increase in medium traffic: 3,4476 traffic per day (in built-up area)
Increase in heavy traffic: 1,242 traffic per day (in built-up area)

Building phase

Mobile construction equipment: Stage IV, 130 -560 kW, construction year 2014/01, Category Q; 200000 liter

Setup

Tygron Platform In the Tygron Platform the Kompasstraat was chosen as a road were traffic would increase. The increase in traffic was calculated automatically by a custom Excel. Also the building related emission were automatically calculated by a custom excel, based on a few input parameters.

In Aerius, the sector Wonen en Werken was chosen, the polygon for the appartmentcomplex was drawn and the amount of building related emissions were filled in. Also a line was drawn over the Kompasstraat, similar to the chosen road segmentsi n the Tygron Platform and in the sector Traffic - binnen bebouwde kom the parameters for the increase in traffic were filled in.
