Abstract :
A method to determine longitudinal pressure profiles in the presence of pumps and outgassing elements in conductance limited vacuum systems by a transfer matrix formalism is discussed. The algorithm is capable of dealing with multiple connected vacuum systems. An implementation of this method in the computer codes VAKTRAK and VAKLOOP is briefly described
