To address the regional applicability of heat-source tower heat pumps (HSTHPs), a mathematical model HSTHPs was established and experimentally verified. In different thermal zones, seasonal operation characteristics were investigated in winter summer conditions. The results showed that, heating performance factor (HSPF) value cold zone is lowest, but it can reach 2.40 winter, HSPF values hot-su...

Watershed scale hydrologic simulation models HSPF (Hydrologic Simulation Program – FORTRAN) and SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) were used to model the hydrology of the 2150 square mile Iroquois River watershed (IRW) located in the east central Illinois. Both models are part of the BASINS modeling system that facilitates preand post-processing of data, as well as data input to the models u...

A watershed hydrological model, hydrological simulation program-Fortran (HSPF), was applied to simulate the spatial and temporal variation of hydrological processes in the Jiaoyi watershed of Huaihe River Basin, the heaviest shortage of water resources and polluted area in China. The model was calibrated using the years 2001-2004 and validated with data from 2005 to 2006. Calibration and valida...

The accuracy of rainfall predictions in the EPA’s BASINS (Better Assessment Science Integrating Point and Nonpoint Sources) decision support tool is affected by the sparse meteorological data contained in BASINS. The objectives of this study were improvement of using the entropy theory to supplement the precipitation data are significant when the watershed’s meteorological station is either far...

This paper presents a hydrodynamic model of Mobile Bay developed using the Adaptive Hydraulic Modeling system (ADH), the Hydrological Simulation Program FORTRAN (HSPF), and the Mesh Generation and Refinement Tool (MGRT), to simulate water surface elevations in Mobile Bay, Alabama. The computational grid was created using MGRT and NOAA’s coastline and bathymetric data. HSPF provided stream flow ...
