Abstract

A simulation model has been made for molten corium in a nuclear reactor using the Moving Particle Semi-Implicit (MPS) method. By setting the value of dynamic viscosity and temperature of corium, simulations are carried out to display the pressure profile and flow velocity of the corium fluid that falls from the RPV to the plenum. In the first simulation to observe the pressure and velocity profile of the corium in the plenum, three conditions were made: the plenum was empty; the plenum was filled with corium fluid, and the plenum was filled with debris. The second simulation was carried out to determine the relationship between the time required for corium to reach the plenum for variations in corium viscosity and temperature values. The simulation results show that the increase in corium viscosity will be proportional to the length of time it takes to reach the plenum. In contrast to the effect of temperature where the increase in corium temperature will be the smaller the time required.

Abstract

Three radiation detection tools were employed to assess natural radiation levels in Mamuju Regency, West Sulawesi, Indonesia. These tools comprised the NaI(Tl) Scintillator, the Geiger Muller Counter (GMC), and the Electronic Personal Dosimeter (EPD). The NaI(Tl) Scintillator and GMC measured ambient dose equivalent (H*(10)), while the EPD exclusively gauged personal dose equivalent (Hp(10)). A total of 75 measuring points were designated for assessment. Results from H*(10) measurements indicated that the GMC recorded an average H*(10) 41% higher than that of the NaI(Tl) Scintillator, with specific rates of 0.769 µSv/h and 0.457 µSv/h, respectively. Both instruments exhibited proficiency in detecting elevated levels of radiation. Discrepancies in the outcomes were attributed to differences in detector type and efficiency. The GMC, equipped with an energy-compensated detector, demonstrated enhanced efficiency compared to the NaI(Tl) Scintillator, particularly when subjected to high energy flux radiation. Anomalies emerged in the Hp(10) measurements, which surpassed the H*(10) measurements. This difference is due to the EPD's use of a conventional GM detector, which is capable of detecting gamma, beta, and X-ray radiation

Abstract

This study aims to obtain a Spread-Out Bragg Peak (SOBP) for breast cancer treatment using proton pencil beams Monte Carlo simulation. Proton beams with 2 MeV energy steps from 70 to 110 MeV were simulated using Geant 4 software to generate the SOBP. The optimization tool Linear Least Squares (lsqlin) was used to configure the proper proton beam weighting fraction. This tool successfully produced SOBPs within a depth range of 4-8 cm, 4-6 cm, and 5-7 cm. Comparison against a trial-and-error approach to creating SOBP by a different study shows that Linear Least Squares (lsqlin) approximation leads to a better SOBP.
