Methods of kernel parameter calculation for stabilization technology of radon concentration in a closed radon chamber.

A radon chamber is a standard apparatus for experimental research of radon that can simulate ambient conditions such as atmosphere, ground surface and subsurface, and the dynamic stabilization technology of radon concentration in a radon chamber is the core technology of radon chamber research. In this paper, an attenuation method was proposed based on a radon leakage attenuation model for calculation of leak rate, a kernel parameter of the stabilization technology of radon concentration in a closed radon chamber, as well as a bench method based on a radon replenishment model for calculation of the effective generation rate at radon source, another kernel parameter of stabilization technology. In this study, the present methods were applied to parameter calculation in an HD-6-type small/medium-sized radon chamber, achieving an excellent application effect. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
