Inhalation Dose Due to Indoor Radon
The Rn and Rn enter the atmosphere mainly by crossing the air interface of either soil-air or building materials. The existence of relatively high indoor concentration maintains a large Rn, Rn concentration gradient between the materials and open air. The present paper deals with the experimental measurement of Rn, Rn concentrations and the associated inhalation dose rates due to them in the dw...
متن کاملInhalation dose due to radon and its progeny at Pune
The radon and its progeny concentrations are measured near the surface of the earth at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune, India. In-situ measurements of the meteorological parameters such as temperature and relative humidity are also made simultaneously. The concentrations show maxima in the early morning hours when the turbulence mixing is the minimum; whereas in the afternoon...
متن کاملDose estimation and radon action level problems due to nanosize radon progeny aerosols in underground manganese ore mine.
One of the essential parameters influencing of the dose conversion factor is the ratio of unattached short-lived radon progeny. This may differ from the value identified for indoor conditions when considering special workplaces such as mines. Inevitably, application of the dose conversion factors used in surface workplaces considerably reduces the reliability of dose estimation in the case of m...
متن کاملMeasurement of inhalation dose due to radon and its progeny in an oil refinery and its dwellings .
Background: Radon, an invisible, odorless, heaviest (nine times heavier than air) and radioactive gas is an aberration (the only gas in the long decay chain of heavy metal elements). It is ubiquitously present in dwellings and in the environment. Humans receive the greatest radiation dose in their homes. That's where they spend most time - typically 70%, more for small children. Recent worldwid...
متن کاملEstimation of annual effective dose due to radon and thoron concentrations in mud dwellings of Mrima Hill, Kenya.
This study presents radon and thoron concentration measurements and the corresponding effective dose rates in mud dwellings located in the high background radiation area of Mrima Hill, Kenya. Discriminative technique was used for simultaneous measurement of radon and thoron. The effective dose was evaluated based on the concentration of the isotopes and the time spent indoors. Radon concentrati...
