Description

This web-based tool can be used to calculate exposure to a single-size particle within a single zone. The basic transport processes captured by the model are depicted in the figure below. They include particle generation by a source, surface deposition and resuspension, transport via airflow, and filtration.

The tool was developed to take advantage of ContamX, the simulation engine of CONTAM, which is run by the web interface as client-side javascript implementation. Details of the tool are provided in the following document.
