Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Physics, Applied)A particle model is developed using the test-particle Monte Carlo method to study the transport properties of alpha-ray generated ion clusters in a flow of air. The simulated transport properties provide a theoretical basis for designing the alpha radioactivity measurement system. An accurate ion-molecule collision model is proposed to simulate the collisions between ion and air molecule. The recombination between positive and negative ions is simulated using Nanu and Denpoh method [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 67(1998) 1288]. The calculations are performed from low gas pressures of 0.001 and 0.01 atm to high gas pressures of 0.1 and 1 atm in a circular pipe. The simulation presents such a steady state ion transport that the generation of ions reaches a quasi-equilibrium with the loss of ions, absorbed by a measuring sensor and lost on the pipe wall.

An alpha radioactivity monitor (alpha-clearance monitor) is being developed to measure alpha radioactivity of uranium contaminated waste with large and complex surfaces. It uses an alpha radioactivity measurement method by collecting the air ionized by alpha particles using an air stream and by measuring its ion current. One of the major problems of the alpha-clearance monitor is the background ion current mainly by radon in atmosphere (
700 fA), which is much larger than ion current of an alpha particle (several fA). It strongly influences on the detection limit of alpha radioactivity. In order to improve the detection limit, we developed a method to monitor the radon concentration inside the monitor without the additional radon detector. In addition, the influencing factors on the detection limit: ion mobility and ion recombination coefficient were measured and evaluated on various environmental conditions (temperature, humidity and aerosol density).

Radioactive waste contaminated by Uranium has been accumulated in front-end facilities of the nuclear fuel cycle. The purpose of the present project is to develop the practical and highly efficient measurement system, which solves the above-mentioned requirements based on the innovative concept of indirect alpha radioactivity measurement using ionized air stream transportation. The ionized air by alpha particles near the waste is peeled and transported into the ion sensor by controlling air stream in the measurement system. In order to give the actual solution for this indirect measurement concept, we have to clarify various basic physics concerning with radiation ionizing process in the air, ion reaction process in the air, ion transportation process by the turbulent air flow, and measurement process in the ion sensor. For this purpose, we have to develop various analytical simulation technologies for predicting ion behavior as well as direct measurement technologies of ion spatial distribution. The final target of the project is to establish the practical and verified clearance confirmation technology based on the above-mentioned physical and technological knowledge.
