      The DPM concentration is defined as: DPM concentration = (Avg. particle mass in cell * Part resi. Time * Strength of particle) / Cell volume (1)
      Strength of particle = number in parcel / dt_flow = total particle flow rate / mass of single particle in the stream (2)
      From (1) and (2), DPM conc. = (Avg. particle mass in cell * Part residence. Time * Total particle flow rate) / (mass of single particle in stream * cell volume).
