In the experiment, simultaneous measurements of the radiation field from the 41Ar decay, the meteorology, the 41Ar source term and plume geometry were performed. The visible tracer was injected into the reactor emission stack, and the plume cross section determined by Lidar scanning of the released aerosols. The data collected in the exercise provide a valuable resource for atmospheric dispersion and dose rate modeling. | | Publication date: | 01 Febr 2002 | | ISBN: | ISBN: 87-7893-109-6 | | Number of downloads: | 2253 | | Download: |  NKS-55.pdf |
