Abstract
A digital computer simulation model of traffic flow and pollution emissions has been developed for free-flow situations using car-following theory and constrained random input to predict the emissions of gaseous pollutants in the atmosphere emitted from different types of vehicles on the road. The type of vehicle, its position, speed and acceleration are then used to predict the total pollutant emissions in the atmosphere. The model is designed to find the pollutants emission of nitrogen oxides as NO 2 and hydrocarbons as CH 3 emitted to the atmosphere from different types of vehicles by free-flowing traffic on the road. The program summed up the pollutant emissions for all vehicles in the system to represent the total emissions of pollutants. The model is then used to examine various traffic and pollutant control strategies.
