The invention discloses a novel
system and method of measuring concentration of
radon in water. The novel
system of measuring concentration of
radon in water includes successively connected first Gamma
detector, first
linear amplifier, first single-channel pulse-height analyzer, first
delay shaping circuit and first scaler, and successively connected second Gamma
detector, second
linear amplifier,second single-channel pulse-height analyzer, second
delay shaping circuit and second scaler, wherein the output terminal of the first
delay shaping circuit and the output terminal of the second delayshaping circuit are connected to the input terminal of a
coincidence circuit; the
coincidence output terminal of the
coincidence circuit is connected with a third scaler; the novel
system of measuring concentration of
radon in water also includes a calculation module which is used for calculating the
activity concentration C<222><Rn>: C<222><Rn>=n<
Gamma Gamma 1> - n) / V<Elipson> <
Gamma Gamma>of 222Rn in a sample to be measured, wherein n<
Gamma Gamma 1> is the
counting rate of the third scaler during the process of measuring the sample to be measured; n is the background counting rateof the third scaler; V is the volume of the sample to be measured; and Epsilon <Gamma Gamma> is the detection efficiency of a coincidence channel. The novel system and method of measuring concentration of radon in water can quickly reduce the measurement background and can achieve the effect of quickly and accurately measuring the concentration of radon in water.
