description Simulation, design and fabrication of a sealing enclosure is carried out for a NaI(Tl) 2″×2″ detector, to be used as in situ gamma radioactivity measurement system in marine environment. Effect of sealing enclosure on performance of the system in laboratory and marine environment (distinct tank with 10m3 volume) were studied using point sources. The marine volumetric efficiency for radiation with 1461keV energy (from 40K) is measured with KCl volumetric liquid source diluted in distinct tank. The experimental and simulated efficiency values agreed well. Marine volumetric efficiency calibration curve is calculated for 60keV to 1461keV energy with Monte Carlo method. This curve indicates that efficiency increasing rapidly up to 140.5keV but then drops exponentially. •Simulation, designing and making of sealing enclosure for a NaI(Tl) 2″×2″ to use 100m water depth.•Various experimental tests with and without enclosure by point sources.•Carrying out the system in lab water environment with 10m3 volume and repeat the same tests.•Measurement of the efficiency for designed system by KCl volumetric liquid source and comparison with the simulation results.•Marine volumetric efficiency calibration based on the simulation results.
