By employing a model of interactive traps which conforms to experimental findings the glow curve of K2YF5:Pr compounds have been analysed. A novel algorithm, which allows the decoupling of the equations describing the carrier traffic among traps, recombination centres and energy bands, is reported. An important conclusion drawn from the results is that it is not always correct to think of each single peak as related only to one trap.
