Abstract
This study is a contribution for radiation dose calculations of a hypothetical accident of a 1 MW research reactor Triga Mark II using HotSpot code. A postulated accidental release of noble gases and halogens were considered. The total effective dose (TED) was estimated for 1 day and 50 years after release. The total damage of fuel element cladding with a maximum radioac- tivity was considered. The obtained results show minimal TED values at the beginning of the release and at a shorter distance from the source. The maximum calculation results are acceptable and below the recommended public dose limit.
本研究是对使用HotSpot代码计算1 MW研究反应堆Triga Mark II假设事故的辐射剂量的贡献。考虑了惰性气体和卤素的假定意外释放。总有效剂量(TED)估计为释放后1天和50年。考虑了具有最大放射性的燃料元件包壳的总损伤。所获得的结果显示了在释放开始时以及在离源较短的距离处的最小TED值。最大计算结果是可接受的,并且低于建议的公众剂量限值。
