This PDC provides a comprehensive introduction to IH Mod 2.0, an Excel-based modeling tool available on AIHA's website for evaluating workplace and consumer inhalation exposures with a stochastic mode for addressing variability and uncertainty in exposure estimates. The session will discuss: a) the IH Mod 2.0 suite of exposure models; b) how to select the models and parameter inputs for a given exposure scenario; c) whether modeled predictions should be based on a deterministic or probabilistic approach; d) the interpretation of model outputs, which can be expressed as concentration curves or time-weighted averages; e) validation efforts comparing modeled and measured results; and f) issues related to data quality, model validation, and model limitations. Case studies will illustrate the application of the following models in different settings: 1) well-mixed room (box) model, 2) two-zone (near field/far field) model, 3) near-field plume model, and 4) turbulent eddy diffusion model. Special emphasis will be placed on characterizing the distribution of exposures using Monte Carlo simulation techniques.
