Micro-environmental models

This folder provides information on, and access to, methods and tools for modelling contaminant concentrations in indoor and other enclosed micro-environments. 

Item Type Description
CONTAM Factsheet Multizonal indoor air quality and ventilation program designed to determine the airflow in a building, chemical contaminant concentration in various rooms of the building, and personal exposure to chemical contaminants present in building.  Freely available.
INDEX Model Simple spreadsheet-based formulation of a mass-balance model, for simulating indoor concentrations of particulates (and other inert pollutants) on the basis of information about outdoor concentrations; produces probabilistic distributions for each target location.
RISK IAQ Factsheet Multi-compartment indoor air quality model, designed for analysing the impact of sources, sinks, ventilation, and air cleaners on indoor air quality and exposures.
