Parameter distribution types used in the Monte Carlo simulation during heating and non-heating.
| Definition | Units | Distribution Mode | Heating | Non-Heating | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BaPeq | ng/m3 | Log-Normal | LN (2.7,0.4) | N (−2.4, 1) | Measured |
| IR | m3/d | Normal | N (35.1, 15.0) | N (42.1, 12.5) | Measured |
| EF | day/year | Constant | 140 | 220 | / |
| Exposure Duration | year | Constant | 10 | 10 | Measured |
| Average Time | day | Constant | 25500 | 25500 | / |
| Bodyweight (BW) | kg | Normal | N (29.9, 5.6) | N (29.9, 5.6) | Measured |
For the log-normal distribution LN (a, b), parameter a is the arithmetic mean of log-transformed data, and parameter b is the standard deviation of log-transformed data. For the normal distribution N (a, b), parameter a is the arithmetic mean, and parameter b is the standard deviation.
