内容記述 | Thoron interference in radon measurements using passive diffusion radon detectors/monitors is a crucial problem when it comes to assessing the internal exposure to radon precisely. The present study reported, as one of the potential factors, the effects of air flow conditions on changes in thoron interference. Rates of thoron infiltration (as thoron interference) into the diffusion chamber of the monitor were evaluated. The temporal variation was obtained based on measurements of the underfloor space of a Japanese wooden dwelling using a diffusion-type radon monitor, a reference radon monitor which was not affected by thoron interference, and a thoron monitor. The thoron infiltration rate for the diffusion-type monitor varied from 0% to 20%. In particular, it appeared to increase when ventilation of the underfloor space air was forced. The variable thoron infiltration rate, with respect to ventilation strength, implied that not only a diffusive process, but also an advective process, played a major role in air exchange between the diffusion chamber of the monitor and the outer air. When an exposure room is characterized by the frequent variation in air ventilation, a variable thoron response is considered to occur in radon–thoron discriminative detectors, in which only diffusive entry is employed as a mechanism for the discrimination of radon and thoron. |
